NCIt definition : Human DUX4L1 gene is located in the vicinity of 4q35 and is approximately 2 kb in
length. The product is a processed pseudogene that produces an RNA transcript, but
does not encode a protein product. This gene is within a D4Z4 repeat array; contraction
of this macrosatellite repeat is associated with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy
(FSHD).;
NCIt note : The DUX4L1 gene is located within a D4Z4 repeat array in the subtelomeric region of
chromosome 4q. (EntrezGene);
