A novel phenotype with splicing mutation identified in a Chinese family with desminopathy
. Background:. Desminopathy, a hereditary myofibrillar myopathy, mainly results from the desmin gene (DES) mutations. Desminopathy involves various phenotypes, mainly including different cardiomyopathies, skeletal myopathy, and arrhythmia.

Minigene-based splice assays provide new insights on intronic variants of the PKHD1 gene
Autosomal Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease (ARPKD) is a rare hereditary disorder caused by variants in PKHD1. Currently, aberrant splicing has been reported to play important roles in genetic disease. Our goal is to analyze intronic variants in PKHD1 at the mRNA level.The 12 candidate variants were introduced into the corresponding minigene and ...

Functional analyses of splice site variants in TCF12
Pre-mRNA splicing is a fundamental step in protein synthesis within a cell. Malfunctions during this process can lead to dysfunctional proteins and thus, to a variety of different human diseases. Mis-splicing can be caused by genetic variants influencing

Abstract Summary Functional testing of RNA using minigene splicing assays is increasingly being realized to demonstrate the effects of variants on splicing. In complex cases, variant pathogenicity is assessed by Sanger sequencing, which can be time consuming and may be replaced by short read ...
