Aberrant neuromuscular junctions and delayed terminal muscle fiber maturation in α-dystroglycanopathies

10 Mar 2006

Abstract excerpt

Recent studies have revealed an association between post-translational modification of alpha-dystroglycan (alpha-DG) and certain congenital muscular dystrophies known as secondary alpha-dystroglycanopathies (alpha-DGpathies). Fukuyama-type congenital muscular dystrophy (FCMD) is classified as a secondary alpha-DGpathy because the responsible gene, fukutin, is a putative glycosyltransferase for alpha-DG. To...
