Analysis of mutational dynamics at the DMPK (CTG)(n) locus identifies saliva as a suitable DNA sample source for genetic analysis in myotonic dystrophy type 1

Genotype-to-phenotype correlation studies in myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) have been confounded by the age-dependent, tissue-specific and expansion-biased features of somatic mosaicism of the expanded CTG repeat. Previously, we showed that by controlling for the confounding effects of somatic inst...
