A MAPT mutation in a regulatory element upstream of exon 10 causes frontotemporal dementia
We report here the genetic analysis of a newly ascertained kindred in which frontotemporal dementia occurs in an apparent autosomal dominant fashion, and in which a novel MAPT gene mutation co-segregates with disease. Sequencing the MAPT gene in affected individuals revealed a change in intron 9. Th...
