Muscular Dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy (congenital Without Mental Retardation), Type B, 4; Mddgb4

Description

MDDGB4 is a rare autosomal recessive congenital muscular dystrophy that is part of a group of similar disorders resulting from defective glycosylation of alpha-dystroglycan (DAG1 ), collectively known as 'dystroglycanopathies.' In contrast to most dystroglycanopathies, mental retardation is not a feature of MDDGB4 (Godfrey et al., 2007).For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of congenital muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy type B, see MDDGB1 (OMIM ).
