“…About 30-35% cases of D/BMD are assumed to result from microdeletions, microinsertions or substitutions of one or more nucleotide(s). Several independent studies have reported small mutations in the dystrophin gene (Kiliman et al, 1992;Nigro et al, 1992Nigro et al, , 1994Roberts et al, 1992;Tuffery et al, 1993Tuffery et al, , 1995Tuffery et al, , 1996Kneppers et al, 1995;Sitnik et al, 1997;Eranslan et al, 1999;Wibawa et al, 2000). These are randomly distributed throughout the dystrophin gene (http://www.dmd.nl).…”
