To determine the founder of Indian myotonic dystrophy mutation, we have studied the expansion of CTG repeats in myotonin protein kinase gene and two intragenic linked loci Alu(ins) / Alu(del) and G/T intron 9 Hinf1 polymorphism in ten unrelated DM patients from eastern India. Out of these ten patien
