Mdx mouse information


The mdx mouse is a popular model for studying Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).[1][2] The mdx mouse has a point mutation in its DMD gene, changing the amino acid coding for a glutamine to STOP codon. This causes the muscle cells to produce a small, nonfunctional dystrophin protein.[3] As a result, the mouse has a mild form of DMD where there is increased muscle damage and weakness.
