Abstract excerpt
The molecular analysis of 127 DMD/BMD patients showed that 73 of them (57%) had deletions in the dystrophin gene. Two different methods were used in this study: (a) hybridization of HindIII-digested genomic DNA with nine cDNA probes corresponding to the entire 14kb cDNA of the DMD gene; and (b) s...
