Abstract excerpt
Variants that disrupt normal pre-mRNA splicing are increasingly being recognized as a major cause of monogenic disorders. The SCN1A gene, a key epilepsy gene that is linked to various epilepsy phenotypes, is no exception. Approximately 10% of all reported variants in the SCN1A gene are designated as splicing variants, with many located outside of the canonical donor and acceptor splice sites, and most have not...
