Both the discovery of the DYT1 gene on chromosome 9q34 in autosomal dominant early-onset torsion dystonia and the detection of linkage for one form of adult-onset focal dystonia to chromosome 18p (DYT7) in a family from northern Germany provide the opportunity to further investigate genetic factors in the focal dystonias. Additionally, reports of linkage disequilibrium between several chromosome 18 markers and...
