Friedreich's ataxia

Rare inherited neurological disorder characterized by unsteadiness of gait and posture and spasticity of the limbs. It is a progressive condition, with onset usually around the age of 12. Victims rarely live beyond the age of 40.

It is the result of a ‘stutter’ within a gene where one codon repeats itself. The disease affects 1 in 50,000 Europeans.
