Distal transcript of the dystrophin gene initiated from an alternative first exon and encoding a 75-kDa protein widely distributed in nonmuscle tissues.
- Abstract:
-
A transcript generated by the distal part of the Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) gene was initially detected in cells where the full size 14-kilobase (kb) messenger RNA is not found at a significant level. This transcript, approximately 4.5 kb long, corresponds to the cysteine-rich and carboxyl-terminal domains of dystrophin. It begins with a novel 80- to 100-nucleotide exon containing an ATG start site for a new coding sequence of 17 nucleotides in-frame with the consecutive dystrophin cDN...
