Recently, an association between the dopamine D(3) receptor (DRD3) Ser9Gly polymorphism and ET has been reported. We studied whether PD tremor is influenced by Ser9Gly in a genetic association study based on the gene bank of the German Competence Network on Parkinson's disease. The study included...
