Further identification of a 140bp sequence from amid intron 9 of human FMR1 gene as a new exon

Abstract Background The disease gene of fragile X syndrome, FMR1 gene, encodes fragile X mental retardation protein (FMRP). The alternative splicing (AS) of FMR1 can affect the structure and function of FMRP. However, the biological functions of alternatively spliced isoforms remain elusive. In a pr...
