The primary cause of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a mutation in the dystrophin
gene leading to the absence of the corresponding RNA transcript and protein. Absence of …

The primary cause of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a mutation in the dystrophin
gene, leading to absence of the corresponding protein, disruption of the dystrophin …

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 …

Abstract Dystrophin Related Protein is the recently identified protein product of a large
autosomal transcript, showing significant similarity to dystrophin at the carboxyl terminus …

Dystrophin transcripts were shown to be alternatively spliced in a pattern characteristic of
both tissue type and developmental stage. Multiple novel spliced forms of dystrophin mRNA …

Previously we identified a novel 6.5 kb mRNA transcribed from the Duchenne muscular
dystrophy (DMD) gene. This mRNA differs in coding content and tissue distribution from the …

Dystrophin is the gene product that is affected in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).
Antibodies against dystrophin were used to study the protein in muscle fibers of carriers of …

Duchenne muscular dystrophy was a well‐established medical and genetic enigma by the
1970s. Why was the new mutation rate so high in all world populations? Why were affected …

Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies (DMD and BMD) are X‐linked recessive
neuromuscular disorders caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene affecting …

Muscle dystrophin mRNAs from Duchenne (DMD) and Becker (BMD) patients with internal
deletion of the DMD gene were quantitated and sequenced. In all cases (eight DMD and …
