Abstract excerpt
Torsion dystonia-1 (DYT1) dystonia, the most common inherited form of dystonia, is caused by a three base pair deletion that eliminates a single amino acid from the disease protein, torsinA. TorsinA is an "AAA" protein thought to reside in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), yet both its cellular fun...
