Idiopathic torsion dystonia: assignment of a gene to chromosome 18p in a German family with adult onset, autosomal dominant inheritance and purely focal distribution

1 Oct 1996

Abstract excerpt

Idiopathic torsion dystonia (ITD) is a group of movement disorders which is usually inherited in an autosomal dominant manner with reduced penetrance. Most patients with ITD present with focal dystonia at adult age. However, thus far, this common subform remained unmapped chromosomally. In contrast, a rare early onset, more generalized form of ITD has been mapped to chromosome 9q34. Our linkage study in a large...
