Molecular characterization of the 5′-UTR of retinal dystrophin reveals a cryptic intron that regulates translational activity

PURPOSE: Mutations in the dystrophin (DMD) gene cause Duchenne or Becker muscular dystrophy (DMD/BMD). DMD contains a retina-specific promoter in intron 29. The short R-dystrophin transcript from this promoter has a retina-specific exon 1 (R1) joined to exon 30 of the DMD gene. It has been claimed t...
