DUX4 - Wikipedia
Double homeobox, 4 also known as DUX4 is a protein which in humans is encoded by the DUX4 gene. [3] . Its misexpression is the cause of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). This gene is located within a D4Z4 macrosatellite repeat array in the subtelomeric region of chromosome 4q35.

2024年12月24日 · DUX4 (Double Homeobox 4) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with DUX4 include Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy 1 and Soft Tissue Sarcoma. Among its related pathways are RNA Polymerase I Promoter Opening and Nervous system development.
The D4Z4 Repeat–Mediated Pathogenesis of Facioscapulohumeral …
One of the most prominent features of the subtelomere of chromosome 4q is a large polymorphic repeat structure consisting of 1–100 KpnI units, designated “D4Z4” (van Deutekom et al. 1993; Hewitt et al. 1994). These units, each 3.3 kb in size, are ordered in a head-to-tail orientation and show very little sequence diversity.
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy - MedlinePlus
Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy is caused by genetic changes involving the long (q) arm of chromosome 4. Both types of the disease result from changes in a region of DNA near the end of the chromosome known as D4Z4. This region consists of 11 to more than 100 repeated segments, each of which is about 3,300 DNA base pairs (3.3 kb) long.
Facioscapulohumeral Muscular Dystrophy (FSH, FSHD)
The region of human chromosomes that causes FSHD contains a section with multiple identical units of DNA called D4Z4 repeats. The number of D4Z4 repeat units in the general population varies from 11 to 100. Each repeat contains a copy of a gene called DUX4.

1995年8月10日 · D4Z4 is a complex repeat: it contains a novel homeobox sequence and two other repetitive sequence motifs. In most sporadic FSHD cases, a specific DNA rearrangement, deletion of copies of the repeat at D4Z4, is associated with development of the disease.
