Genetic Analysis of HIBM Myopathy-Specific GNE V727M Hotspot Mutation Identifies a Novel COL6A3 Allied Gene Signature That Is Also Deregulated in Multiple Neuromuscular Diseases and Myopathies.

Abstract excerpt

The GNE-associated V727M mutation is one of the most prevalent ethnic founder mutations in the Asian HIBM cohort; however, its role in inducing disease phenotype remains largely elusive. In this study, the function of this hotspot mutation was profoundly investigated. For this, V727M mutation-specific altered expression profile and potential networks were explored. The relevant muscular disorder-specific in vivo...
