Abstract excerpt
X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP) is an X-linked recessive adult onset movement disorder characterized by both dystonia and parkinsonism. We report delineation of the disease gene within a 300-kb interval of Xq13.1 by allelic association. Sequencing of this region in a patient revealed five disease-specific single-nucleotide changes (here referred to as DSC) and a 48-bp deletion unique to XDP. One of the DSCs...
