Complete laminin alpha2 (LAMA2) deficiency causes approximately half of congenital muscular dystrophy (CMD) cases. Many loss-of-function mutations have been reported in these severe, neonatal-onset patients, but only single missense mutations have been found in milder CMD with partial laminin alpha2

Mutations in the DYSF gene underlie two main muscle diseases: Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD) 2B and Miyoshi myopathy (MM). Dysferlin is involved in muscle membrane-repair and is thought to interact with other dysferlin molecules and annexins A1 and A2 at the sarcolemma. We performed genotype/
