Molecular Aspects of Medicine, 1991
Recent advances concerning the genetic and biochemical basis of Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies have resulted in a good understanding of the etiology of these common dystrophies. An important secondary consequence of the genetic and biochemical research has been the generation of gene-based and protein-based diagnostic tools which enable a ...

Functions of dystrophin and dystrophin associated proteins
Current Opinion in Neurology, 1997Dystrophin is a protein product of the X-linked gene mutation that is responsible for Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies. The protein binds actin and associates with dystrophin-glycoprotein complex to link the cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix.

Dystrophin is a plasma membrane-associated cytoskeletal protein of the spectrin superfamily. The dystrophin cytoskeleton has been first characterized in muscle. Muscular 427 kDa dystrophin binds to subplasmalemmal actin filaments via its amino-terminal domain.

Dynamic restoration of dystrophin to dystrophin-deficient myotubes
Muscle & Nerve, 2001Dystrophin domains are observed in myoblast transplantation experiments and in muscle fibers after somatic reversion in human Duchenne and mdx mouse muscular dystrophy. However, the formation and evolution of dystrophin-positive domains are not well established.

Neuromuscular Disorders, 1993
The respective localizations of dystrophin and dystrophin-related protein (DRP or utrophin) along the sarcolemmal membrane and at the neuromuscular junctions (NMJs) in normal and dystrophin-deficient skeletal muscles, were determined using confocal laser microscopy. The analysis was prompted by the recent availability of a new anti-utrophin mAb [Bewick

Molecular Extensibility of Mini-dystrophins and a Dystrophin Rod Construct
Journal of Molecular Biology, 2005Muscular dystrophies arise with various mutations in dystrophin, implicating this protein in force transmission in normal muscle. With 24 three-helix, spectrin repeats interspersed with proline-rich hinges, dystrophin's large size is an impediment to gene therapy, prompting the construction of mini-dystrophins.

A quantitative ELISA for dystrophin
Journal of Immunological Methods, 1993A novel approach to the quantitation of the muscular dystrophy protein, dystrophin, in muscle extracts is described. The two-site ELISA uses two monoclonal antibodies against dystrophin epitopes which lie close together in the rod domain of the dystrophin molecule in order to minimize the effects of dystrophin degradation.

Dystrophin and related proteins
Current Opinion in Genetics & Development, 1993During the past year significant progress has been made in understanding how dystrophin deficiency leads to muscle cell necrosis in Duchenne muscular dystrophy and Becker muscular dystrophy. Dystrophin interacts with a glycoprotein complex spanning the muscle sarcolemma, effectively linking the actin cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix.
