Abstract

We previously reported four different mutations in the coding region of GTP cyclohydrolase I (GCH-I) gene in patients with hereditary progressive dystonia with marked diurnal fluctuation (HPD). We found two independent new mutations (leucine 79 proline and a deletion in exon 4) in patients with HPD. We also found four families of HPD without any mutations in the coding region of GCH-I gene.
