Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Mutations in CHRNE, the gene encoding the muscle nicotinic acetylcholine receptor epsilon subunit, cause congenital myasthenic syndromes. Only three of the eight intronic splice site mutations of CHRNE reported to date have had their splicing consequences characterised. METHODS: We analysed four previously reported and five novel splicing mutations in CHRNE by introducing the entire normal and mutant...
