Essential tremor: Family-based sequencing suggests involvement of neuronal and metabolic pathways.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Essential tremor (ET) is the most common adult-onset movement disorder, yet its genetic basis remains incompletely understood. Although familial aggregation is well recognized, ET shows marked genetic heterogeneity, with many rare and family-specific variants reported. OBJECTIVE: To identify rare candidate genetic variants potentially contributing to ET using family-based sequencing and segregation...
