Minimal expression of dysferlin prevents development of dysferlinopathy in dysferlin exon 40a knockout mice

Abstract Dysferlin is a Ca2+-activated lipid binding protein implicated in muscle membrane repair. Recessive variants in DYSF result in dysferlinopathy, a progressive muscular dystrophy. We showed previously that calpain cleavage within a motif encoded by alternatively spliced exon 40a releases a 72...
