Rapid, comprehensive analysis of the dystrophin transcript by a custom micro-fluidic exome array.

Abstract excerpt

Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies are caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. Both the enormous size of this gene and heterogeneous set of causative mutations behind these pathologies may hamper and even prevent accurate molecular diagnosis. Often RNA analysis is required not only to identify mutations escaping MLPA/CGH or exon sequencing but also to validate the functional effect of novel variations...
