Inhibition of a transcriptional repressor rescues hearing in a splicing factor–deficient mouse

In mechanosensory hair cells (HCs) of the ear, the transcriptional repressor REST is continuously inactivated by alternative splicing of its pre-mRNA. This mechanism of REST inactivation is crucial for hearing in humans and mice. Rest is one of many pre-mRNAs whose alternative splicing is regulated...
