SR proteins and the nonsense-mediated decay mechanism are involved in human <it>GLB1 </it>gene alternative splicing

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>The human <it>GLB1 </it>gene is known to give rise to two alternatively spliced mRNAs, which encode two different proteins: lysosomal β-galactosidase (β-gal) and elastin-binding protein (EBP). The β-gal transcript include...
