Abstract:Background
Pathogenic missense variants in the dystrophin (DMD) gene are rarely reported in dystrophinopathies. Most DMD missense variants are of uncertain significance and their pathogenicity interpretation remains complicated. We aimed to investigate whether DMD missense variants would cause aberrant splicing and re-interpret their pathogenicity based on mRNA and protein studies.
