Dystonia-causing mutations in the transcription factor THAP1 disrupt HCFC1 cofactor recruitment and alter gene expression

Thanatos-associated protein domain containing, apoptosis-associated protein 1 (THAP1), the gene mutated in DYT6 dystonia, encodes a transcription factor. While the N-terminal THAP domain allows for specific DNA-binding, the functional relevance of the other regions is largely unknown. The C-terminus...
