  • Abstract
  • Look Inside

Myotonic dystrophy (DM) is an autosomal dominant, multisystemic disorder and is the most common form of muscular dystrophy affecting adults. The underlying genetic mutation causing DM, has been identified as an unstable expanded (CTG) n repeat, in the 3'-untranslated region(3'-UTR) of a gene encoding a putative protein kinase(DMPK). Thanks to the discovery of DM-specific mutation, we understand the molecular basis of anticipation and DNA analysis provides a new accuracy of DM diagnosis, with either conventional Southern blots or with PCR, of asymptomatic or mildly affected members of DM families.
