Abstract excerpt
To explore the rules for mammalian splice-site selection using a statistical approach, we constructed an aberrant splicing database containing an extensive collection of mammalian genetic disease mutations (90 genes, 209 mutations). From this database, we confirmed that: (1) more than 90% of mutations either destroy or create the splice-site consensus sequences; (2) the number of mutations mapped at individual...
