Overexpression of human wildtype torsinA and human ΔGAG torsinA in a transgenic mouse model causes phenotypic abnormalities

Overexpression of human wildtype torsinA and human ΔGAG torsinA in a transgenic mouse model causes phenotypic abnormalities

Primary torsion dystonia is an autosomal-dominant inherited movement disorder. Most cases are caused by an in-frame deletion (GAG) of the DYT1 gene encoding torsinA. Reduced penetrance and phenotypic variability suggest that alteration of torsinA amino acid sequence is necessary but not sufficient f...
