Title:
LGMD GENE CODING FOR A CALCIUM DEPENDENT PROTEASE
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO1996016175
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A nucleic acid sequence comprising: 1) the sequence represented in Figure 8; or 2) the sequence represented in Figure 2; or 3) a part of the sequence of Figure 2 with the proviso that it is able to code for a protein having a calcium dependant protease activity involved in a LGMD2 disease ; or 4) a sequence derived from a sequence defined in 1), 2) or 3) by substitution, deletion or addition of one or more nucleotides with the proviso that said sequence still codes for said protease.
