LGMD, limb Girdle muscular dystrophy
During the course of this study, the gene mutated in LGMD1B was identified as Lamin A/C [ 24 ] . Our investigation, however, revealed that an unrelated gene, YL-1, intergenically spliced into TMOD4 . YL-1 is a putative transformation suppressor gene that localizes to the nucleus and binds to DNA [ 25 26 ] . YL-1 is organized into six exons and produces several alternatively spliced transcripts using both intergenic and cryptic splicing.
