Congenital Muscular Dystrophies
- Congenital muscular dystrophy
A group of muscular dystrophies with onset at birth or in infancy, including dystroglycanopathies (such as FKRP, FKTN and POMT1/2-related forms).

How TRIP4 is laid out
- Coding sequence
- Untranslated region
- Intron
- Direction of transcription
- Known disease-causing sites
- Stretches short reads find hard
Exons of the gene's MANE Select transcript (release v1.5), from NCBI and EMBL-EBI, on the GRCh38 reference genome.
Chromosome bands from UCSC's GRCh38 ideogram (2022-10-29).
Nearby genes from Ensembl release 116, on GRCh38.
Exons make up 2 kb of the gene's 67.5 kb; 1,746 of those bases code for the protein.
How a genome test reads TRIP4
9
positions in TRIP4 where ClinVar classes a change as pathogenic or likely pathogenic
None of them falls in a region short reads find hard.
A whole genome covers all 67.5 kb of TRIP4, introns included, not only the 2 kb of exons.
