The expression of circ_0001946, miR-671-5p, and cerebellar degeneration-related autoantigen 1 (CDR1) was detected by real-time quantitative PCR, and the protein expression of CDR1 was determined by western blotting.
The cerebellar degeneration-related autoantigen 1 (CDR1) gene, mapping in Xq26-q27.2, is expressed in cerebrum, cerebellum, heart, lung, liver, and kidney.
This study narrows down the localization of the gene coding for the cerebellar degeneration-related protein (CDR 34) to the upper boundary of the FRAXA and reports the finding of two common RFLPs respectively identified at an RsaI site flanking the 3' end of the gene and at a Hincll site flanking its 5' end.
We have localized the gene encoding a cerebellar degeneration related (CDR) protein to a region proximal to the fragile site close to DXS98 and DXS105.
Two Purkinje cell-specific antigens are recognized by these autoantibodies, a major antigen of 62 kDa (CDR 62, cerebellar degeneration-related 62-kDa protein) and a minor antigen of 34 kDa (CDR 34).
