A primary expression map of the chromosome 15q15 region containing the recessive form of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD2A) gene

Abstract excerpt

Previous genetic and physical studies of LGMD2A, an autosomal recessive form of limb-girdle muscular dystrophy, have led to the establishment of a 10-12 Mb YAC contig encompassing the morbid locus. In order to progress toward the identification of the gene involved in LGMD2A, a primary transcription map of this genomic region was generated. The direct cDNA selection strategy was used with three YACs covering the...
