Homozygosity of the Dominant Myotilin c.179C>T (p.Ser60Phe) Mutation Causes a More Severe and Proximal Muscular Dystrophy.

Abstract excerpt

Most myotilinopathy patients present with a dominant late onset distal phenotype and myofibrillar pathology, although the first MYOT mutation in a family reported to have LGMD phenotype. We report here a French family affected with a late onset proximal and distal muscle weakness and myofibrillar myopathy on muscle pathology, in which the siblings known to be clinically affected were homozygous for the c.179C>T...
