Abstract excerpt
Using the polymerase chain reaction method (PCR), we examined the allele frequencies and heterozygosities of 7 polymorphic sites (pERT87, and CA polymorphisms in the 5' and 3' regions) of the dystrophin gene in 20 Japanese Duchenne muscular dystrophy and Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD or BMD) families consisting of 36 males, including 23 cases of DMD and BMD, and 28 females. The allele frequencies of three primer...
