Abstract excerpt
CONTEXT: Mutations in the LMNA gene are responsible for several laminopathies, including lipodystrophies, with complex genotype/phenotype relationships. OBJECTIVE, DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS: Sequencing of the LMNA coding regions in 277 unrelated adults investigated for lipodystrophy and/or insulin resistance revealed 17 patients with substitutions at codon 482 observed in typical Dunnigan's familial partial...
