Abstract excerpt
Variable levels of aberrantly spliced cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR ) transcripts were suggested to correlate with variable cystic fibrosis (CF) severity. We studied the effect of the cellular splicing factors, hnRNP A1 and ASF/SF2, and their adenoviral analogues, E4-ORF6 and E4-ORF3, that promote exon skipping and/or exon inclusion, on the splicing pattern of the CFTR mutation...
