Exploiting the CRISPR/Cas9 system to study alternative splicing<i>in vivo</i>: application to titin
23 Aug 2016
Abstract excerpt
The giant protein titin is the third most abundant protein in striated muscle. Mutations in its gene are responsible for diseases affecting the cardiac and/or the skeletal muscle. Titin has been reported to be expressed in multiple isoforms with considerable variability in the I-band, ensuring the modulation of the passive mechanical properties of the sarcomere. In the M-line, only the penultimate Mex5 exon...
