Abstract excerpt
Highly complementary antisense morpholino oligonucleotides (AMOs) can bind to pre-mRNA and modulate splicing site selection. This offers a powerful tool to regulate the splicing process, such as correcting subtypes of splicing mutations and nonsense mutations and reprogramming alternative splicing processes. Therefore, AMO-mediated splicing modulation represents an attractive therapeutic strategy for genetic...
