Line 1:
'''Dysferlin''' is a [[protein]] linked with [[skeletal muscle]] repair. A defect in the dysferlin [[gene]], [[chromosome]] ___location 2p12-14, results in either of two types of [[muscular dystrophy]]; Miyoshi Myopathy (MM) and Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy type 2B (LGMD2B). A reduction or absence of dysferlin usually becomes apparent in the third or forth decade of life and is charaterised by weakness and wasting of various voluntary [[skeletal muscles]].
