Abstract excerpt
Mutations in more than 100 different genes are known to cause hereditary primary myopathies. In patients with less distinct phenotypes several genes may have to be sequenced in order to make the correct diagnosis. The large number of possible candidate genes and overlapping phenotypes, as well as an enormous size of some of the genes such as DMD, TTN and NEB, constitute difficult challenges for molecular genetic...
