Abstract excerpt
AIMS: To verify whether dystrophin gene mutations among Chinese patients feature different types and frequencies from other populations. METHODS: Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification (MLPA) in combination with multiplex PCR (mPCR) and/or short tandem repeat (STR)-based linkage analysis were applied in a large series of Chinese families affected with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) or Becker muscular...
