Solution

The correct option is A Dystrophin
DMD, the largest known human gene, provides instructions for making a protein called dystrophin. This protein is located primarily in muscles used for movement and in heart muscle. A small amount of dystrophin is present in nerve cells in the brain. So Dystrophin is the largest human gene.
So, the correct option is 'Dystrophin'
