## Communicated by Jiirgen Horst Mutations in the emerin gene, also referred to as the STA-or EMD-gene, have been found to be the cause of X-linked Emery-Dreifuss muscular dystrophy (EMD). For the present study an optimized set of primers was designed to amplify and sequence each of the six emerin
We used the single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) method to investigate 13 apparently unrelated Spanish patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) for mutations in the promoter region and the 18 exons and their flanking intron sequences of the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor ge
We report on the clinical, pathological, and genetic features of 7 patients with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 2A (LGMD2A) from three Japanese families. The mean age of onset was 9.7 Β± 3.1 years (mean Β± SD), and loss of ambulance occurred at 38.5 Β± 2.1 years. Muscle atrophy was predominant in
