Abstract excerpt
Hereditary progressive dystonia (HPD) is caused by the mutant gene encoding GTP cyclohydrolase I (GCH). The clinical presentation of this disease varies considerably, and many cases appear to be sporadic. We have previously proposed that this clinical variation may be due to differential expression of the mutant and normal GCH mRNA, presumably at the protein level. To provide support for this proposal, we studied...
