Extra Details:
The dystrophin gene is the largest gene found in nature. The gene was identified throμgh a positional cloning approach; targeted at the isolation of the gene responsible for Duchenne (DMD) and Becker (BMD) Muscular Dystrophies. DMD is a recessive; fatal; X-linked disorder occurring at a frequency of about 1 in 3;500 new-born males. BMD is a milder allelic form. In general; DMD patients carry mutations which cause premature translation termination (nonsense or frame shift mutations); while in BMD patients dystrophin is reduced either in molecular weight (derived from in-frame deletions) or in expression level. The dystrophin gene is highly complex; containing at least eight independent; tissue-specific promoters and two polyA-addition sites. Furthermore; dystrophin RNA is differentially spliced; producing a range of different transcripts; encoding a large set of protein isoforms. Dystrophin (as encoded by the Dp427 transcripts) is a large; rod-like cytoskeletal protein which is found at the inner surface of muscle fibers. Dystrophin is part of the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex (DGC); which bridges the inner cytoskeleton (F-actin) and the extra-cellular matrix. IHC staining of normal muscle tissue results in clear labeling confined to the periphery (plasma membrane) of normal muscle fibers. The product exhibits wide interspecies cross-reactivity.
