Abstract excerpt

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is one of the most common autosomal recessive diseases caused by homozygous deletion of exon 7 of the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene in approximately 95% of SMA patients. Carrier frequency studies of SMA have been reported for various populations. The aim of our study was to estimate the carrier frequency of the common SMN1 exon 7 deletion in the Moroccan population to achieve...
