Abstract excerpt
Both, recessive (LGMD R1) and dominant (LGMD D4) inheritance occur in calpain 3-related muscular dystrophy. We report a family with calpain-related muscular dystrophy caused by two known variants in the calpain 3 gene (CAPN3, NM_000070.3; (I) c.700G>A, p.Gly234Arg and (II) c.1746-20C>G, p.?). Three family members are compound heterozygous and exhibit a relatively homogeneous phenotype characterized by progressive...
