(The Rockefeller University Press, 2013)The muscular dystrophies are a group of heterogeneous genetic diseases characterized by progressive degeneration and weakness of skeletal muscle. Since the discovery of the first muscular dystrophy gene encoding dystrophin, ... -
Telomere Position Effect (TPE) Regulates DUX4 in Human Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSHD)
Stadler, Guido; Rahimov, Fedik; King, Oliver D.; Chen, Jennifer C. J.; Robin, Jerome D.; Wagner, Kathryn R.; Shay, Jerry W.; Emerson, Charles P.; Wright, Woodring E.
