Abstract excerpt
Mutations of splice sites, auxiliary splicing elements and the splicing machinery cause a wide range of genetic disease. Here we report that many of the complex effects of splicing mutations can be predicted from background splicing information, with emphasis on BRCA1, BRCA2 and DMD. Background splicing arises from very low level splicing between rarely used background splice sites and from low-level exon...
