The genes that encode the alpha 1 (VI) and alpha 2 (VI) collagen chains, designated COL6A1 and COL6A2, map to human chromosomal band 21q22.3. Using pulsed-field gel electrophoresis and somatic cell hybrids, we found that COL6A1 and COL6A2 form a gene cluster on the most distal part of chromosome 21.

## Abstract Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) is a neuropsychiatric disorder characterised by multiple motor and phonic tics, which wax and wane. Recently, evidence has accumulated supporting the role of autoimmune mechanisms in the aetiology of GTS, suggesting that it is within the paediatric a
