A new screening method involving the multiplex polymerase chain reaction was developed to detect dystrophin gene deletions in Japanese patients with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD/BMD). Eleven exonic regions including deletion "hot spots" were analyzed. Gene deletions were found in 33% of 92 unrelated Japanese patients, mainly in the central portion (exons 43-52) and at the 5' end (exons 1-17). This is a useful laboratory test for the rapid genetic diagnosis of DMD/BMD.
