The minor gentamicin complex component, X2, is a potent premature stop codon readthrough molecule with therapeutic potential
25 Oct 2018
Abstract excerpt
Nonsense mutations, resulting in a premature stop codon in the open reading frame of mRNAs are responsible for thousands of inherited diseases. Readthrough of premature stop codons by small molecule drugs has emerged as a promising therapeutic approach to treat disorders resulting from premature termination of translation. The aminoglycoside antibiotics are a class of molecule known to promote readthrough at...
