## Communicated by Mark H. Paalman Ataxia-telangiectasia (A-T) is an autosomal recessive neurological disorder caused by mutations in the ATM gene. Classical splicing mutations (type I) delete entire exons during pre-mRNA splicing. In this report, we describe nine examples of nonclassical splicing
Small consensus sequences have been defined for RNA splicing, but questions about splicing in humans remain unanswered. Analysis of germline mutations in the factor IX gene offers a highly advantageous system for studying the mutational process in humans. In a sample of 860 families with hemophilia
A nonsense mutation (c.729C>A, Y243X) in exon 7 of the PDHA1 gene in a patient with pyruvate dehydrogenase deficiency results in aberrant splicing of the primary transcript with production of stable mRNAs which lack either both exons 6 and 7 or exon 7 alone. Transfection and expression of genomic co
