Abstract excerpt
The consequence on the splice mechanism of a mutation occurring at the donor splice site of intron 1 has been studied. We demonstrate that, in spite of the change at G+1 position, this site is still utilized and can produce correctly spliced transcript. Nevertheless the mRNA is detectable only after an 'in vitro' amplification. A procedure has been developed to reveal and quantify the minute amount present in the...
