A GIANT LOCUS FOR THE DUCHENNE AND BECKER MUSCULAR-DYSTROPHY GENE
The gene responsible for Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy has been assigned to band Xp21 of the human X chromosome, and the isolation of DNA segments from this region has provided probes useful for prenatal diagnosis and carrier detection. It has also led to the identification and partial clon...
