Pathogenic CGG expansions in oculopharyngodistal myopathy exhibit distinct characteristics of each causative gene on the flanking sequences as well as methylation status

Abstract Background Oculopharyngodistal myopathy (OPDM) is a hereditary muscle disease caused by CGG/CCG repeat expansions in six genes. Although the clinical features are often similar, such as ptosis, dysphagia, and distal muscle weakness, the age at onset vary widely, and the mechanisms underlyin...
