Abstract excerpt
Variations in a polymorphic (TG)m sequence near exon 9 of the human CFTR gene have been associated with variable proportions of exon skipping and occurrence of disease. We have recently identified nuclear factor TDP-43 as a novel splicing regulator capable of binding to this element in the CFTR pre-mRNA and inhibiting recognition of the neighboring exon. In this study we report the dissection of the RNA binding...
