Abstract
We have studied patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), DMD together with glycerol kinase (GK) deficiency, or DMD together with both GK deficiency and congenital adrenal hypoplasia (AHC). Analysis of deletions in these patients allows the mapping of these mutations in Xp21. The following order is proposed: Xpter – L1 – AHC – GK – DMD – Xcen. One of the boys with DMD, GK, and AHC is shown by pulsed‐field‐gel electrophoresis to have a deletion which has a proximal endpoint at least 500 kb distal from the pERT87 (DXS164) locus.Keywords
