Muscular Dystrophies—Diseases of the Dystrophin-Glycoprotein Complex
Abstract
Defects in the gene for the muscle protein dystrophin cause many cases of muscular dystrophy. Worton discusses three new papers, one in this issue of Science (Noguchi et al ., p. 819 ) and two in the November issue of Nature Genetics , which report that defects in the sarcoglycans, transmembrane glycoproteins that associate with dystrophin, underlie certain other types of muscular dystrophy.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
