Duchenne muscular dystrophy caused by a complex rearrangement between intron 43 of the DMD gene and chromosome 4.
[ "Deletions/duplications of exons in the DMD gene cause about 70% of all cases of Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Most remaining mutations are point mutations or small insertion-deletions located mainly in the coding but also in deep intronic regions of the DMD gene. We describe a novel complex rearrangement in a...
