Analysis of CTG repeat length variation in the <i>DMPK</i> gene in the general population and the molecular diagnosis of myotonic dystrophy type 1 in Malaysia.

It was found that there was a highly significant difference in the distribution of normal CTG alleles larger than 18 between the African population and the European and Japanese populations. 13 This reiterates a previous theory that CTG alleles between 19 and 30 act as a source of DM1 mutations in subsequent generations. 16 These findings have fo
