Abstract excerpt

Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD), a relatively common autosomal recessive disorder in Japan, is characterized by severe congenital muscular dystrophy in combination with cortical dysgenesis (polymicrogyria). The gene responsible for FCMD encodes a novel protein, fukutin, which is likely to be an extracellular protein. Pathological study of brain tissue from FCMD fetuses revealed frequent breaks...
