Symptoms of OTC deficiency but not DMD in a female carrier of an Xp21.1 deletion including the genes for dystrophin and OTC.

Abstract
A contiguous deletion encompassing the genes for dystrophin, cytochrome b(-245) beta-subunit (CYBB), retinitis pigmentosa GTPase regulator (RPGR), and OTC was detected in a female patient only suffering from OTC deficiency while symptoms of the other conditions were not present.
