Description: Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a lethal muscle disease which is caused by non functional dystrophin protein. Normal dystrophin gives a proper structure to our muscle and enables us to perform physical activities, such as walking… and dancing!nnThe dystrophin protein is encoded by the DMD gene, which consists of arrays of exons (E) and introns (I). To make dystrophin protein, the introns have to be spliced out by the spliceosome (pink). The exons are then joined together and the amino aci
