The Dystrophinopathies: An Alternative to the Structural Hypothesis
Abnormal expression of the cytoskeletal protein dystrophin has deleterious consequences for skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and the central nervous system. A complete failure to express the protein produces Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), in which there is extensive and progressive skeletal musc...
