Abstract excerpt
UK NHS diagnostic service sequence analysis of genes generally examines and reports on variations within a designated region 5' and 3' of each exon, typically 30 bp up and downstream. However, because of the degenerate nature of the splice sites, intronic variants outside the AG and GT dinucleotides of the acceptor and donor splice sites (ASS and DSS) are most often classified as being of unknown clinical...
