Abstract excerpt

Myotonic dystrophy is the commonest adult form of muscular dystrophy, with an estimated incidence of 1 per 7,500, although this is likely to be an underestimate because of the difficulty of detecting minimally affected individuals. It is a multisystem autosomal dominant disorder of unknown biochemical basis. No case of new mutation has been proven. We have isolated a human genomic clone that detects novel...
