Comprehensive analysis of genomic complexity in the 5’ end coding region of the DMD gene in patients of exons 1–2 duplications based on long-read sequencing

Abstract Background Dystrophinopathies are the most common X-linked inherited muscle diseases, and the disease-causing gene is DMD. Exonic duplications are a common type of pathogenic variants in the DMD gene, however, 5’ end exonic duplications containing exon 1 are less common. When assessing the...
