Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The THAP1 gene encodes a transcription factor, and pathogenic variants cause a form of autosomal dominant, isolated dystonia (DYT-THAP1) with reduced penetrance. Factors underlying both reduced penetrance and the disease mechanism of DYT-THAP1 are largely unknown. METHODS: We performed transcriptome analysis on 29 cortical neuronal precursors derived from human-induced pluripotent stem cell lines...
