Description

In affected members of a nonconsanguineous family with congenital merosin-deficient muscular dystrophy (607855), Helbling-Leclerc et al. (1995) found by SSCP analysis aberrant conformers for exon 24 of the LAMA2 gene. Sequencing of exon 24 revealed a homozygous C-to-T substitution at position 3767 of their cDNA. The mutation caused a change in a CAA codon for glutamine to a TAA stop codon (Q1241X) in domain IVa.
