Long-read sequencing and profiling of RNA-binding proteins reveals the pathogenic mechanism of aberrant splicing of an <i>SCN1A</i> poison exon in epilepsy
2023-05-04
Abstract excerpt
Pathogenic loss-of-function SCN1A variants cause a spectrum of seizure disorders. We previously identified variants in individuals with SCN1A -related epilepsy that fall in or near a poison exon (PE) in SCN1A intron 20 (20N). We hypothesized these variants lead to increased PE inclusion, which introduces a premature stop codon, and, therefore, reduced abundance of the full-length SCN1A transcript and Na v 1.1...
