By example, the X-linked congenital Duchenne's Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), is caused by mutation of the gene encoding the cytoskeletal protein dystrophin results in a lack of functional dystrophin (Mendell et al., 2010), resulting in membrane destabilization and loss of muscle tissue (Blake et al., 2002). The gene discussed is DMD; the disease is Duchenne muscular dystrophy.
