Abstract excerpt
A striking but poorly understood feature of many diseases is the unique involvement of neural tissue. One example is the CNS-specific disorder DYT1 dystonia, caused by a 3-bp deletion ("DeltaE") in the widely expressed gene TOR1A. Disease mutant knockin mice (Tor1a(DeltaE/DeltaE)) exhibit disrupt...
