Alterations in energy production in a Drosophila model for the X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism-related Taf1 deficiency [PDF]
BackgroundX-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP), an adult-onset neurodegenerative disorder, is caused by an SVA insertion in the TAF1 gene, containing a hexanucleotide, the length of which is correlated to the severity of the disease.

Correction of the molecular phenotype of X-linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism reveals a non-canonical function of BRD4 [PDF]
Transcription and mRNA processing are tightly coupled regulatory layers on gene expression, and their perturbations underly human disorders. X-linked Dystonia-Parkinsonism (XDP) is a unique example of a human disease connecting aberrant mRNA processing ...

Pathogenic SREK1 decrease in Huntington's disease lowers TAF1 mimicking X-linked dystonia parkinsonism. [PDF]
The Author(s) (2020).Huntington’s disease and X-linked dystonia parkinsonism are two monogenic basal ganglia model diseases. Huntington’s disease is caused by a polyglutamine-encoding CAG repeat expansion in the Huntingtin (HTT) gene leading to several ...

Proteomic analysis of X-linked dystonia parkinsonism disease striatal neurons reveals altered RNA metabolism and splicing [PDF]
Summary: X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP) is a rare neurodegenerative disease endemic to the Philippines. The genetic cause for XDP is an insertion of a SINE-VNTR-Alu (SVA)-type retrotransposon within intron 32 of TATA-binding protein associated ...

G-quadruplexes in an SVA retrotransposon cause aberrant TAF1 gene expression in X-linked dystonia parkinsonism. [PDF]
International audienceG-quadruplexes (G4s) are non-canonical nucleic acid structures that form in guanine (G)-rich genomic regions. X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP) is an inherited neurodegenerative disease in which a SINE–VNTR–Alu (SVA ...

Depression in X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism: A case-control study [PDF]
X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP), also known as lubag, was originally described as endemic to Panay, Philippines [ [1] ]. XDP demonstrates a primary and progressive neuronal degeneration of the striatum and is characterized by an adult-onset movement

Validation of a Questionnaire for Distinguishing X-Linked Dystonia Parkinsonism From Its Mimics [PDF]
Objectives: X-linked dystonia parkinsonism (XDP) is a neurodegenerative movement disorder endemic to the island of Panay in the Philippines. We undertook a population-based prevalence study to enumerate all cases of XDP in Panay.

ZNF91 is an endogenous repressor of the molecular phenotype associated with X-linked dystonia-parkinsonism (XDP). [PDF]
X-linked dystonia–parkinsonism (XDP) is a severe neurodegenerative disorder resulting from an inherited intronic SINE-Alu-VNTR (SVA) retrotransposon in the TAF1 gene that causes dysregulation of TAF1 transcription.
