Abstract

We report our observations in an Australian family with spinocerebellar ataxia type 14 (SCA 14). We describe a novel mutation in exon 5 of the PRKCG gene, altering a highly conserved cysteine to a phenylalanine at codon 150, and record the detailed clinical observations in six affected family members.
