You find that the mutant mRNA is longer than the mRNA from the normal cells. Examination of the sequences of the gene encoding this mRNA reveals that there are nucleotide changes at the boundary of one of the exons in the mutant cell gene. Which of the following nucleotides would be expected to be found at the 3' end of upstream donor exons and the 5' end of downstream acceptor exons in the normal gene but not in the mutant gene? A.

Spinal Muscular Atrophy: “Mechanism of Splicing Regulation of Spinal Muscular Atrophy Genes” (2018) https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6026014/ Abstract: “Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is one of the major genetic disorders associated with infant mortality. More than 90% cases of SMA result from deletions or mutations of Survival Motor Neuron 1 (SMN1) gene. SMN2, a nearly identical copy of SMN1, does not compensate for the loss of SMN1 due to predominant skipping of exon 7. However, correction of SMN2 exon 7 splicing has proven to confer therapeutic benefits in SMA patients. The only approved drug for SMA is an antisense oligonucleotide (Spinraza™/Nusinersen), which corrects SMN2 exon 7 splicing by blocking intronic splicing silencer N1 (ISS-N1) located immediately downstream of exon 7. ISS-N1 is a complex regulatory element encompassing overlapping negative motifs and…arrow_forwardExplain the Analysis of Neurospora Mutants by Beadle and Tatum ?arrow_forward
