Myoclonus-dystonia syndrome (MDS) is a non-degenerative neurological disorder that has been described to be inherited in an autosomal dominant mode with incomplete penetrance. MDS is caused by loss of function mutations in the epsilon-sarcoglycan gene. Reinvestigation of MDS pedigrees provided evide
