Reductions in IKAP increase neuronal branching and perturb cell separation.
DRG were dissociated, transfected with IKBKAP shRNA or control scrambled shRNA and cultured for 24 hrs. (A–F). Reductions in IKAP increased the number of neurons in cultures from immature (E5) DRG.

IKAP expression in WT and FD early and mature neurons.
(A) RT-PCR analysis of the expression of IKBKAP showing WT (upper lane) and FD (mis-spliced, lower lane) mRNA isoforms at the stage of early neuronal precursors, early and mature neurons.

IKAP regulates neuronal differentiation in the DRG.
Reduction in IKAP leads to increased numbers of neurons in the immature DRG (A–C). Embryos at St. 12 were transfected with either control shRNAs or IKBKAP shRNAs and analyzed at St 24/25. Embryos were sectioned, and immunolabled with the neuronal markers

Mutations that affect the splicing of pre-mRNA are a major cause of human disease. Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a recessive neurodegenerative disease caused by a T to C transition at base pair 6 of IKBKAP intron 20.

Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analyses.
Equal amount of total RNA from control (C) and mutant (M, IkbkapΔ20/Δ20) embryos at the indicated stages (E8.5-E10.5) was used for cDNA synthesis in the presence of reverse transcriptase (RT) and the resulting cDNA was used for amplification of the ...

International audienceFamilial dysautonomia (FD) is a rare inherited neurodegenerative disorder. The most common mutation is a c.2204+6T>C transition in the 5' splice site (5'ss) of IKBKAP intron 20, which causes a tissue-specific skipping of exon 20 ...
