Identification of a novel T-insertion polymorphism at the DMD locus

Hum Genet. 1993 Aug;92(1):103. doi: 10.1007/BF00216157.

Abstract

We have identified a novel T-insertion polymorphism located in the second intron of the dystrophin gene. This polymorphism should prove useful in linkage studies in Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy families in addition to the previously described markers.
