Abstract excerpt
The modified U1 snRNA gene can suppress expression of a target transgene. In the present study, its potential utility to inhibit a dominant negative/gain of function mutation is explored. Using a green fluorescent protein (GFP) target gene, inhibition was achieved in all cells transduced with U1antiGFP directed at multiple sites within GFP. Using a chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) target gene, inhibition...
