Minigene Assay to Evaluate CRISPR/Cas9-based Excision of Intronic Mutations that Cause Aberrant Splicing in Human Cells

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2019
The construction of Hybrid minigenes provides a robust and simple strategy to study the effects of disease-causing mutations on mRNA splicing when biological material from patient cells is not available.

Minigene Splicing Assays Identify 20 Spliceogenic Variants of the Breast/Ovarian Cancer Susceptibility Gene RAD51C

open access: yes, 2022
SIMPLE SUMMARY: Loss-of-function variants of the RAD51C gene are known to confer a risk of breast and ovarian cancers. In this study, we analyzed the impact of RAD51C variants on splicing, a highly regulated gene expression step by which introns are ...

Novel SCN5A and GPD1L Variants Identified in Two Unrelated Han-Chinese Patients With Clinically Suspected Brugada Syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Brugada syndrome (BrS) is a complexly genetically patterned, rare, malignant, life-threatening arrhythmia disorder. It is autosomal dominant in most cases and characterized by identifiable electrocardiographic patterns, recurrent syncope, nocturnal ...

Assessing the effects of ANO7 mutations on mRNA splicing using a minigene splicing assay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Prostate cancer (PrCa) is the most common cancer type in men. Dysregulated splicing is considered a hallmark of cancer, and PrCa has its own characteristic splicing landscape. Alternative splicing (AS) enables production of multiple protein isoforms

Splicing predictions, minigene analyses, and ACMG-AMP clinical classification of 42 germline PALB2 splice-site variants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
PALB2 loss-of-function variants confer high risk of developing breast cancer. Here we present a systematic functional analysis of PALB2 splice-site variants detected in approximately 113,000 women in the large-scale sequencing project Breast Cancer ...

Deep intronic deletion in intron 3 of PLP1 is associated with a severe phenotype of Pelizaeus-Merzbacher disease

open access: yesHuman Genome Variation, 2021
Recently, altered PLP1 splicing was confirmed as a genetic cause of hypomyelination of early myelinating structures (HEMS). A novel deep intronic deletion in intron 3 of PLP1 (NM_000533.5: c.453+59_+259del) was identified, and an in vitro minigene assay ...

An in vitro splicing assay reveals the pathogenicity of a novel intronic variant in ATP6V0A4 for autosomal recessive distal renal tubular acidosis

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2017
Background Autosomal recessive distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is a rare hereditary disease caused by pathogenic variants in the ATP6V0A4 gene or ATP6V1B1 gene, and characterized by hyperchloremic metabolic acidosis with normal anion gap ...
