Isoform-specific NF1 mRNA levels correlate with disease severity in Neurofibromatosis type 1
15 Nov 2019
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is characterized by an extreme clinical variability both within and between families that cannot be explained solely by the nature of the pathogenic NF1 gene mutations. A proposed model hypothesizes that variation in the levels of protein isoforms generated via alternative transcript processing acts as modifier and contributes to phenotypic variability. RESULTS: Here we...
