IMED1002 Lecture Notes - Lecture 28: Rna Splicing, Northern Blot, Western Blot
Document Summary
Run mrna on gel, it seperates according to size, us eprobe that is compliment, detect it. Whole exon can be deleted as result of mutations in splice signals: exon skipping. Part of exon can be deleted as a result of mutations in normal splice signals-> cryptic splice site selection (sequences resembling normal splice signals) If its not a multiple of 3 that we remove then it changes reading frame.

Abnormal splicing of beta-globin rna in patients with beta thalassemia: different single base mutations cause different splicing defects and disease: Reverse mutation- get wild-type: (from mutant back to wild type) Wild type atgc
