Hereditary progressive dystonia (HPD) is caused by the mutant gene encoding GTP cyclohydrolase I (GCH). The clinical presentation of this disease varies considerably, and many cases appear to be sporadic. We have previously proposed that this clinical variation may be due to digetential expression o

Unstable GTP cyclohydrolase I (GCH) mutations in dopa-responsive dystonia (DRD) can exert a dominant-negative effect in the HeLa cell model, but in a batch of cells this effect could not be shown. Through differential display, we found a higher Hsc70 expression in the non-dominant-negative cells. We

We describe a patient with a combination of dystonic and parkinsonian signs. Paraclinical studies revealed a mutation in the GTP cyclohydrolase I gene (GCH1) and a decrease in [ 123 I]-N--fluoropropyl-2␤-carbomethoxy-3␤-(4iodophenyl) nortropane ( 123 I-FP-CIT) binding ratios indicative of Parkinson'

Tetrahydrobiopterin deficiencies are highly heterogeneous disorders, with more than 30 molecular lesions identified in the past 2 years in the GTP cyclohydrolase I and 6-pyruvoyl-tetrahydropterin synthase genes. The spectrum of mutations causing a reduction of these two biosynthetic enzymes is revie
