Pathogenic mechanisms of myotonic dystrophy.

Biochemical Society transactions - 1 Dec 2009

Lee Johanna E, Cooper Thomas A

Abstract excerpt

DM (myotonic dystrophy) is a dominantly inherited genetic disorder that is the most common cause of muscular dystrophy in adults affecting 1 in 8500 individuals worldwide. Different microsatellite expansions in two loci cause different forms of the disease that share similar features: DM1 (DM type 1) is caused by a tri- (CTG) nucleotide expansion within the DMPK (dystrophia myotonica protein kinase)...
