Nov 6th, 2019 - Dynamin 2 (DNM2) encodes a ubiquitously expressed large GTPase with membrane fission capabilities that participates in the endocytosis of clathrin-coated vesicles. Heterozygous mutations in DNM2 are associated with two distinct neuromuscular disor...

Nov 14th, 2018 - Dynamin 2 (DNM2) belongs to a family of large GTPases that are well known for mediating membrane fission by oligomerizing at the neck of membrane invaginations. Autosomal dominant mutations in the ubiquitously expressed DNM2 cause 2 discrete neuro...

Oct 26th, 2017 - Dynamin 2 is a ubiquitously expressed protein involved in membrane trafficking processes. Mutations in the gene encoding dynamin 2 are responsible for a congenital myopathy associated with centrally located nuclei in the muscle fibres. Using muscl...

Aug 6th, 2015 - Centronuclear myopathy refers to a group of rare, inherited conditions that affect the muscles. There are three main forms of the condition that are differentiated by their pattern of inheritance: X-linked Myotubular Myopathy Autosomal Dominant Ce...

Aug 4th, 2015 - Autosomal dominant centronuclear myopathy (AD-CNM) is a type of centronuclear myopathy, which is a group of rare, inherited conditions that affect the muscles. In AD-CNM, specifically, the severity of the condition and the associated signs and sym...
