## Abstract Mutations in the __THAP1__ gene on chromosome 8p21โp22 (DYT6 locus) have been recently reported as causative of autosomal dominant primary torsion dystonia (PTD) in four AmishโMennonite families and in 12 additional probands of different ancestry. We sequenced the __THAP1__ gene in 158
The dystonia gene DYT1 is repressed by the transcription factor THAP1 (DYT6)

By family-based screening, first Fuchs and then many other authors showed that mutations in THAP1 (THAP [thanatos-associated protein] domain-containing, apoptosis-associated protein 1) account for a substantial proportion of familial, early-onset, nonfocal, primary dystonia cases (DYT6 dystonia).

## Abstract Neuropilinโ1 (NRP1) is a receptor for the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) family of angiogenesis factors and for the semaphorin family of secreted neuronal guidance polypeptides. Very little is known, however, about how NRP1 gene expression is regulated. In this study, it was
A network of liver-enriched transcription factors controls differentiation and morphogenesis of the liver. These factors interact via direct, feedback, and autoregulatory loops. Previous work has suggested that hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-6/OC-1 and HNF-3alpha/FoxA1 participate coordinately in t
