CRISPR Activation Reveals the Spliceogenicity of an Intronic NEB Variant in Fetuses With Arthrogryposis Multiplex Congenita 6

Clinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 4, Page 772-777, April 2026.
CRISPR activation of NEB in fibroblasts, followed by RNA‐sequencing, documents spliceogenic effects of a NEB intronic variant. The assay enabled variant reclassification as likely pathogenic, providing molecular diagnosis in fetuses with Arthrogryposis multiplex congenita 6.
