Entry term(s) distrofia miotónica congénita
enfermedad de Steinert
miopatía miotónica proximal
Scope note: Trastorno neuromuscular caracterizado por ATROFIA MUSCULAR ESPINAL, MIOTONÍA, y diversas atrofias multisistémicas. También puede haber leve DISCAPACIDAD INTELECTUAL. La distrofia miotónica I se asocia a EXPANSIÓN DE REPETICIÓN DE TRINUCLEÓTIDO en las REGIONES NO TRADUCIDAS 3' del gen de la MIOTONINA PROTEÍNA CINASA. La distrofia miotónica 2 congénita se asocia a EXPANSIÓN DE REPETICIONES DE ADN en el intrón 1 del gen ZFN9.

Scope note: Neuromuscular disorder characterized by PROGRESSIVE MUSCULAR ATROPHY; MYOTONIA, and various multisystem atrophies. Mild INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY may also occur. Abnormal TRINUCLEOTIDE REPEAT EXPANSION in the 3' UNTRANSLATED REGIONS of DMPK PROTEIN gene is associated with Myotonic Dystrophy 1. DNA REPEAT EXPANSION of zinc finger protein-9 gene intron is associated with Myotonic Dystrophy 2.
