Morpholino-Mediated Exons 28-29 Skipping of Dysferlin and Characterization of Multiexon-skipped Dysferlin using RT-PCR, Immunoblotting, and Membrane Wounding Assay.

Abstract excerpt

Dysferlinopathies are a group of disabling muscular dystrophies  that includes limb girdle muscular dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B), Miyoshi myopathy, and distal myopathy with anterior tibial onset (DMAT) as the main phenotypes. They are associated with molecular defects in DYSF, which encodes dysferlin, a key player in sarcolemmal homeostasis. Previous investigations have suggested that exon skipping may be a...
