605377.0001; MYOTONIC DYSTROPHY |
| Identified Mutation |
(CTG)n EXPANSION; The consistent genetic defect associated with myotonic dystrophy is an amplified trinucleotide CTG repeat in the 3-prime untranslated region of the serine-threonine kinase gene DMK on 19q. Unaffected individuals have between 5 and 27 copies. DM patients who are minimally affected have at least 50 repeats, while more severely affected patients have expansion of the repeat-containing segment up to several kilobases. |
| Remarks |
Clinically affected; weakness in hands noted at age 43; pain in calf muscles after walking and fatigue in legs; problems with balance; palmar erythema on the hands; slight ataxia in lower extremities; slight lordosis; hypoactive reflexes; weakness in all extremity muscles; abnormal esophageal motility; long, thin face; thin extremities and thin chest; weakness of neck flexion; myotonia; myopathic facies; muscle biopsy showed "type I fiber atrophy which is characteristic of myotonic dystrophy"; EMG exam was "consistent with a polyneuropathy and tardy ulnar palsy"; donor subject has one normal CTG repeat allele and one allele with a CTG repeat size of approximately 1500 in the DMPK gene; see GM05152 lymphocyte |
