Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: SMCHD1 is a disease modifier and a causative gene for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) type 1 and type 2, respectively. A large variety of different mutations in SMCHD1 have been identified as causing FSHD2. In many cases, it is unclear how these mutations disrupt the normal function of SMCHD1. METHODS: We made and analyzed lenti-viral vectors that express Flag-tagged full-length or...
