HNRNPA1-induced spliceopathy in a transgenic mouse model of myotonic dystrophy
21 Feb 2020
Abstract excerpt
Significance Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a model for RNA-mediated disease in microsatellite expansion disorders. DM1 is caused by CTG expansions (CTG exp ) and expression of CUG exp RNAs that sequester muscleblind-like (MBNL) proteins, while also triggering hyperphosphorylation of CUGBP1/ETR3-like factor 1 (CELF1). These proteins regulate developmental transitions in RNA processing, so DM1 is characterized...
