RNA transcripts, miRNA-sized fragments and proteins produced from D4Z4 units: new candidates for the pathophysiology of FSHD
Jun 1, 2009, 1:27 PM
Several genes have been examined as candidates for causing FSHD, including the DUX4 homeobox gene in the D4Z4 repeat, but none have been definitively shown to cause the disease, or has the full extent of transcripts from the D4Z4 region been carefully characterized.
