摘要
Analysis of the gene GCH1 in 58 patients with dystonia and a positive response to L-dopa revealed mutations in 30 individuals from 22 families. Thirteen of the mutations observed were familial, three occurred de novo, and inheritance could not be determined in six cases. There was no mutation in the promoter region of GCH1 in any patient. The doses of L-dopa given to members of the two groups were not significantly different.
