Allelic Variant 1 |
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; marked weakness of distal and proximal muscles; need for wheelchair ambulation; bilateral cataracts; frontal balding; minimal facial expression with open-mouth; hypoactive deep tendon reflexes; weakness of flexion-extension of the head and neck; myotonic response noted at the thenar eminence and at the tongue; myopathic facies; weakness of facial musculature and lingual movements; myotonia of grip; temporal wasting; distal wasting; donor subject has one normal CTG repeat allele and one allele with two strong bands of approximately 900 and 1000 CTG repeats in the DMPK gene; affected daughter is GM05211; see GM05212 lymphocyte |
