Abstract excerpt
Suspected splicing variants can be very challenging to evaluate more particularly when RNA samples are not available to perform RNA sequencing or when the gene of interest is expressed in specific tissues not easily reachable. One alternative strategy to study the potential splicing effect of a variant is to use the patient's DNA. Indeed, it is easily possible to amplify the region of interest and include it in...
