A 300-bp EcoRV polymorphism, detected with P20 (DXS269) in intron 44 of the human dystrophin gene, is due to an insertion or deletion. To make this restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) available for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) analysis, we sequenced both alleles of this polymorphism a
We utilized a heteroduplex method to screen for small mutations in Duchenne muscular dystrophy patients who did not have deletions or duplications. A dystrophin exon 53 heteroduplex band was identified in 14.4% of the affected patients. Direct sequencing of the amplified product from DNA producing t
