Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Cystic fibrosis is caused by loss of function mutations in the <italic>cystic fibrosis</italic> <italic>transmembrane conductance regulator </italic>(<italic>CFTR</italic>) gene resulting in severe lung disease. Nearly 10% of cystic fibrosis patients have at least one <italic>CFTR </italic>allele with a nonsense mutation that generates a nonsense codon in the mRNA. Nonsense mutations ca...
