A deep exon cryptic splice site promotes aberrant intron retention in a von Willebrand disease patient
2021-11-02
Abstract excerpt
A translationally silent single nucleotide mutation, in exon 44 of the von Willebrand factor (VWF) gene, is associated with inefficient removal of intron 44 in a von Willebrand disease (VWD) patient. This intron retention (IR) event was previously attributed to altered secondary structure that sequesters the normal splice donor site. We propose an alternative mechanism: that the mutation introduces a cryptic splic...
