3.2. Friedreich ataxia
Friedreich ataxia is an autosomal recessive degenerative disease that involves the
central and peripheral nervous system and the heart. The friedreich ataxia dataset
was first reported by Liu et al. for linkage disequilibrium mapping. This dataset
contains 58 disease haplotypes and 69 control haplotypes with 12 microsatellite
markers. The gene is located between the fifth and sixth markers, approximately
9.8125cM away from the leftmost marker. The total region size in this study
is 15 cM.
