A Locus for Paroxysmal Kinesigenic Dyskinesia Maps to Human Chromosome 16
Neurol 54:125-130, Bennett,L.B.,et al, 2000
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
A paroxysmal kinesigenic dyskinesia (PKD) locus lies within an 18 cM interval on 16p11.2-q11.2, between D16S3100 and D16S771. A gene for infantile convulsions with paroxysmal choreoathetosis has also been mapped to this region. These two regions overlap by approximately 6 cM. These two diseases could be caused by different mutations in the same gene or two distinct genes may lie within this region.
