Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Variants perturbing the normal splicing of pre-mRNA can lead to human diseases. The splice-altering effect and eventual consequence on gene function was sometimes uncertain and hinders a definitive molecular diagnosis. METHODS: The impact of four rare intronic variants on splicing was analyzed through reverse transcription - polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analysis of mRNA derived from the...
