Linkage of Miyoshi myopathy (distal autosomal recessive muscular dystrophy) locus to chromosome 2p12-14

1 Apr 1995

Abstract excerpt

Miyoshi myopathy (MM) is a young-adult-onset, autosomal recessive distal muscular dystrophy initially affecting the plantar flexors. We analyzed 12 MM families, five with consanguineous marriage, for chromosomal linkage using polymorphic microsatellite DNA markers to map the MM gene. A significant lod score was obtained with the 2p12-14 locus D2S291 (Zmax = 15.3 at theta = 0). Two additional 2p12-14 markers,...
