Figure 4From: Genetic characterization in symptomatic female DMD carriers: lack of relationship between X-inactivation, transcriptional DMD allele balancing and phenotype Schematic representation of results from X-inactivation and transcriptional analysis. This schematic summarizes the results of X-inactivation studies and transcript quantification in the two groups of symptomatic and asymptomatic carriers, and highlights the absence of a relationship between X-inactivation pattern, transcriptional behaviour and dystrophic phenotype in female carriers.Back to article page
