The protein is encoded in the (Duchenne muscular dystrophy) gene located on the X chromosome. Dystrophin is part of a larger complex called the dystrophin-associated glycoprotein complex (DGC), which accumulates at the neuromuscular junction and synapses (2). The DGC also plays a structural function in muscle fibers by stabilizing the sarcolemma and protecting muscle cell membranes during muscle contractions (3). Mutations in the gene, which is the largest known gene in humans, are genetically linked to Duchenne muscular dystrophy and Becker muscular dystrophy. Dystrophin may play a role in the proper function of central nervous system synapses, as neurological disorders are observed in Duchenne muscular dystrophy patients (4). Moreover, mutations in the gene are linked to Alzheimer's Disease, suggesting a role in neurodegeneration (5).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nBMD; CMD3B; DMD; DXS142; DXS164; DXS206; DXS230; DXS239; DXS268; DXS269; DXS270; DXS272; Dystrophin; MRX85; truncated dystrophin\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 427\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799560933545,"sku":"47759S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-47759s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
