Abstract excerpt
Motheaten mice have a mutation that causes abnormal splicing of the SHP-1 gene producing transcripts that are out of frame. Thus, motheaten mice cannot produce normal SHP-1 protein. However, we have found that the SHP-1 locus in normal mice is expressed as multiple in-frame splice variant transcripts. We report here that the motheaten SHP-1 gene is likewise expressed in multiple spliced forms, two of which are in...
