The dystrophin gene, which is defective in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), also
encodes a number of smaller products controlled by internal promoters. Dp71, which …

Dp71 is the major product of the Duchenne muscular dystrophy gene in the brain. In order to
study the function of Dp71 in the nervous system we examined the expression of Dp71 …

Dp71 expression is present in myoblasts but declines during myogenesis to avoid interfering
with the function of dystrophin, the predominant Duchenne muscular dystrophy gene product …

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a progressive degenerative lethal muscle disease.
A significant proportion of DMD affected children suffer also from mental retardation. The rod …

Dp71, a C-terminal isoform of dystrophin, has been identified as the major DMD gene
product in many nonmuscle tissues. In this report, reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain …

The 70.8 kDa protein product of the distal part of the giant Duchenne muscular dystrophy
(DMD) gene, Dp71, is expressed in many cell types and tissues. Anchored PCR, primer …

Dp71 is a non-muscle product of the Duchenne muscular dystrophy gene. It consists of the
cysteine-rich and C-terminal domains of dystrophin. We have generated transgenic mdx …

To investigate the function of the major non-muscle dystrophin isoform, Dp71, we substituted
a β-galactosidase (βgal) reporter gene for Dp71 by homologous recombination in embryonic …

It has been suggested that the absence or altered structure of Dp71, a C-terminal dystrophin
gene encoded protein, is responsible for mental alterations observed in about 30% of …

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a degenerative disorder of the skeletal muscle in
human and is caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. Themdxmouse is a spontaneous …
