The Multi-System Roles of Dp71 Dystrophin Isoforms in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy
2026-03-31
Abstract excerpt
The DMD gene is well known for its product dystrophin, a large rod-shaped protein that plays a critical role in muscular membrane strength and integrity. Mutations affecting dystrophin lead to Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a fatal X-linked disease characterized by muscular weakness and breakdown.
