Novel autosomal dominant TNNT1 mutation causing nemaline myopathy
ConclusionThis novel mutation alters a residue that is highly conserved among vertebrates. This report highlights not only a family with autosomal dominant inheritance of NEM, but that this novel mutation likely acts via a dominant negative mechanism.
