The CCA pattern was observed in several acquired ataxias (alcoholic cerebellar degeneration, gluten ataxia, anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase ataxia, paraneoplastic cerebellar degeneration and sporadic adult-onset ataxia/idiopathic late-onset cerebellar ataxia), in many dominant ataxias (SCA5, SCA6, SCA8, SCA10, SCA11, SCA12, SCA13, SCA14, SCA15/16, SCA19/22, SCA20, SCA21, SCA26, SCA27, SCA28, SCA31, SCA35, SCA37, SCA38, SCA42, SCA43, SCA44, SCA47 and SCA48), all recessive ataxias with the exception of Boucher–Neuhauser Syndrome (BNS) and SCAR7 and in one X-linked ataxia (SCAX1). The gene discussed is GRM1; the disease is cerebellar degeneration.
