In this Journal, we previously reported genetic linkage between loci on chromosome (chr)2p(ETM) and dominantly inherited essential tremor (ET) in a large American kindred of Czech ancestry. Other investigators reported another ET susceptibility locus on chr 3q (FET1) which accounted for over half of the Icelandic families that were studied. We now report evidence for linkage to the ETM locus in three additional,...
