Decreased Expression of Myotonin-Protein Kinase Messenger RNA and Protein in Adult Form of Myotonic Dystrophy
9 Apr 1993
Abstract excerpt
The myotonic dystrophy mutation has recently been identified; however, the molecular mechanism of the disease is still unknown. The sequence of the myotonin-protein kinase gene was determined, and messenger RNA spliced forms were identified in various tissues. Antisera were developed for analytical studies. Quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction and radioimmunoassay were used to demonstrate...
