High Expression Level of Tra2-β1 Is Responsible for Increased SMN2 Exon 7 Inclusion in the Testis of SMA Mice

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is an inherited neuromuscular disease caused by deletion or mutation of SMN1 gene. All SMA patients carry a nearly identical SMN2 gene, which produces low level of SMN protein due to mRNA exon 7 exclusion. Previously, we found that the testis of SMA mice (smn(−/−) SMN2)...
