Abstract excerpt
A gene responsible for an autosomal recessive form of limb girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD2, MIM number 253600) has been localized on chromosome 15. After genotyping additional markers of this chromosome, two were found to flank the disease locus within an interval that was assessed as 7 centiMor...
