Research Abstract

The dystrophin gene is the largest gene in human and consists of 79 exons. From this gene many isoforms are produced by using the mechanism of alternative promoters and alternative splicing. In this study new isoform of dystrophin was tried to be identified by reverse-transcription PCR technique. And we succeeded to clone new exon sequence that is located within intron 2. Currently the physiological role of new exon is under the investigation.
We also tried to identify mutation in the promoter/first exon region of the dystrophin gene in dilated cardiomyopathy patients. However, no one had mutation in this region. This showed that mutation in the promoter/first exon region is not responsible for Japanese dilated cardiomyophaty.
