This transgene carries a 13.5 kb EcoRI fragment derived from a lambda-42 phage clone encompassing the partially deleted D4Z4 locus of a patient with facioscapulohumeral dystrophy. This allele contains the DUX4 pA signal, but lacks the more downstream exons 6 and 7 and contains 2.5 copies of the D4Z4 unit and flanking sequences. 4 copies of the fragment were integrated on chromosome 17. DUX4 mRNA was detected in germline tissues and variable expression is seen in analyzed somatic tissues including skeletal muscle and in the cerebellum. (J:195481)
