NINDS: Myoclonus refers to a sudden, involuntary jerking of a muscle or group of muscles. In its simplest form, myoclonus consists
of a muscle twitch followed by relaxation. A hiccup is an example of this type of myoclonus. Other familiar examples of myoclonus
are the jerks or "sleep starts" that some people experience while drifting off to sleep.31
MalaCards: Myoclonus is related to progressive myoclonus epilepsy and myoclonus-dystonia. An important gene associated with Myoclonus is EPM2A (epilepsy, progressive myoclonus type 2A, Lafora disease (laforin)), and among its related pathways are Glycogen metabolism and Lysosome. The compounds aspartate and rotigotine have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include brain, spinal cord and breast, and related mouse phenotypes are liver/biliary system and adipose tissue.
