Conditional Knockout of Striatal Gnal Produces Dystonia-like Motor Phenotypes
2024-08-28
Abstract excerpt
Loss-of-function mutations in GNAL have been linked to an adult-onset, isolated dystonia that is largely indistinguishable from idiopathic dystonia. GNAL encodes Gα olf , a heterotrimeric G-protein α subunit with a defined molecular function to increase the production of the second messenger cAMP. Gα olf is abundant in the striatum, and is the only stimulatory G-protein in many cell types of the striatum. Due...
