Tissue‐specific variation in nonsense mutant transcript level and drug‐induced read‐through efficiency in the Cln1R151X mouse model of INCL
9 Dec 2015
Abstract excerpt
About 10% of inherited diseases are caused by nonsense mutations [Trends Mol Med 18 (2012) 688], and nonsense suppression drug therapy promoting translation through premature stop codons is an emerging therapeutic approach. Infantile neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (INCL), a childhood neurodegenerative disease, results from mutations in the CLN1 gene encoding the lysosomal enzyme, palmitoyl-protein thioesterase 1...
