pubmed:abstractText |
Deletions of single or multiple exonic regions within the dystrophin gene can be detected using current molecular methods in approximately 65% of the patients with X-linked recessive neuromuscular disorder, Duchenne/Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD/BMD). Population-based variations in frequency and distribution of dystrophin gene deletions have been reported in DMD/BMD patients. In the present study, the first in the Pakistani population, frequency and distribution of deletions of 18 exons clustered in two hot spots within the dystrophin gene in 211 unrelated DMD patients were analyzed.
