Muscleblind-like 1 knockout mice reveal novel splicing defects in the myotonic dystrophy brain.

Muscleblind-like 1 knockout mice reveal novel splicing defects in the myotonic dystrophy brain.

Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a multi-systemic disorder caused by a CTG trinucleotide repeat expansion (CTG(exp)) in the DMPK gene. In skeletal muscle, nuclear sequestration of the alternative splicing factor muscleblind-like 1 (MBNL1) explains the majority of the alternative splicing defects o...
