The <i>Drosophila</i> dystonia gene homolog <i>Neurocalcin</i> facilitates sleep by inhibiting a movement-promoting neural network

2017-07-05

Abstract excerpt

Primary dystonia is a hyperkinetic movement disorder linked to altered dopaminergic signaling and synaptic plasticity in regions of the brain involved in motor control. Mutations in HPCA , encoding the neuronal calcium sensor Hippocalcin, are associated with primary dystonia, suggesting a function for Hippocalcin in regulating the initiation and/or maintenance of activity. However, such a role for Hippocalcin or...
