With this new grant, Campbell and his colleagues, including Matthew Goddeeris, Ph. D., will study several types of muscular dystrophy that result from deficient glycosylation (addition of sugar molecules) of a muscle protein called dystroglycan.

The dystrophin-deficiency phenotype varies from a severe Duchenne-type to the milder allelic form known as Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD), determined in part by the location of the mutation in relation to the actin and dystroglycan binding domains and, in particular, by the mutation's effect on the reading frame

Beedle will examine how the timing of dystroglycan disruption during muscle development increases or decreases the severity of muscle disease.

The study will also investigate whether restoring normal dystroglycan can lessen or prevent muscle damage in mice.

Several different genetic mutations can disrupt dystroglycan function and cause muscular dystrophy.
