Expression and regulation of the dystrophin Purkinje promoter in human skeletal muscle, heart, and brain.

abstract：:Short tandem repeats are abundantly present within the genome. They are commonly used as polymorphic markers but their potential functional role is poorly documented. Several of these microsatellites have been described within the beta-globin locus and some could be involved in controlling gene expression. Our purpose...
