Abstract excerpt

The DYT6 gene for primary torsion dystonia (PTD) was mapped to chromosome 8p21-q22 in two Amish-Mennonite families who shared a haplotype of marker alleles across a 40 cM linked region. The objective of this study was to narrow the DYT6 region, clinically characterize DYT6 dystonia in a larger co...
