Sequence and Structure Characteristics of 22 Deletion Breakpoints in Intron 44 of the DMD Gene Based on Long-Read Sequencing

Purpose: Exon deletions make up to 80% of mutations in the DMD gene, which cause Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy. Exon 45-55 regions were reported as deletion hotspots and intron 44 harbored more than 25% of deletion start points. We aimed to investigate the fine structures of breakpoints in...
