Hybrid Minigene Assay: An Efficient Tool to Characterize mRNA Splicing Profiles of NF1 Variants
27 Feb 2021
Abstract excerpt
Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1) is caused by heterozygous loss of function mutations in the NF1 gene. Although patients are diagnosed according to clinical criteria and few genotype-phenotype correlations are known, molecular analysis remains important. NF1 displays allelic heterogeneity, with a high proportion of variants affecting splicing, including deep intronic alleles and changes outside the canonical splice...
