Abstract:
:Dystrophin has been proposed to associate with the skeletal muscle membrane by way of a glycoprotein complex that interacts with its C-terminal domains. Transfection of mdx mouse myotubes in culture or myofibres in vivo with recombinant genes encoding human dystrophin deletion mutants shows, however, that not only the C terminus of dystrophin but also its N-terminal actin-binding domain can locate independently to the muscle sarcolemma. This observation suggests that lack of sarcolemma-associated dystrophin in Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) muscle may result from enhanced degradation of truncated mutation products rather than their inability per se to associate with the sarcolemma.
