Muscleblind-Like 1 and Muscleblind-Like 3 Depletion Synergistically Enhances Myotonia by Altering Clc-1 RNA Translation
1 Aug 2015
Abstract excerpt
Loss of Muscleblind-like 1 (Mbnl1) is known to alter Clc-1 splicing to result in myotonia. Mbnl1(ΔE3/ΔE3)/Mbnl3(ΔE2) mice, depleted of Mbnl1 and Mbnl3, demonstrate a profound enhancement of myotonia and an increase in the number of muscle fibers with very low Clc-1 currents, where gClmax values approach ~ 1 mS/cm(2), with the absence of a further enhancement in Clc-1 splice errors, alterations in polyA site...
