Familial hemiplegic migraine, episodic ataxia type 2 (EA2), and spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 are allelic disorders of the CACNA1A gene (coding for the alpha(1A) subunit of P/Q calcium channels), usually associated with different types of mutations (missense, protein truncating, and expansion, respectively).

Spinocerebellar ataxia type 6 (SCA6) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by abnormal expansions of a trinucleotide CAG repeat in exon 47 of the CACNA1A gene, which encodes the alpha1A subunit of the P/Q-type voltage-gated calcium channel.
