Genomics of alternative splicing: evolution, development and pathophysiology.

abstract：:Recent studies of the corneal dystrophies (CDs) have shown that most cases of granular CD, Avellino CD, and lattice CD type I are caused by mutations in the human transforming growth factor beta-induced (TGFBI) gene. The aim of this study was to develop a rapid diagnostic assay to detect mutations in the TGFBI gene. S...
