Abstract excerpt
This study aims to perform gene diagnosis for Chinese family patients with Oculopharyngeal muscular dystrophy (OPMD). Genomic DNAs were extracted from the pedigrees' members. Gene diagnosis was performed for these pedigrees' members by approaches, such as DNA sequencing and GeneScan. Sequence analysis and PABPN1 genotyping showed that the mutated allele in affected members of this family has nine trinucleotide...
