## Abstract Benign hereditary chorea (BHC; OMIM 118700) is an autosomal dominant movement disorder. Mutations in the thyroid transcription factor 1 (TITF1) gene have been linked with BHC. The phenotype for BHC is highly variable and may include atypical features such as dystonia, slow saccades, and
## Abstract Nuclear genes, in particular mitochondrial polymerase gamma (__POLG__) and __PEO1__, have been increasingly recognized to cause mitochondrial diseases. Both genes assume a complementary role as part of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) replication fork and, accordingly, seem to present with
