abstract：:Mutations in vacuolar protein sorting 13A (VPS13A) gene are responsible for chorea-acanthocytosis (ChAc). We previously determined the full-length sequence and exon-intron structure of mouse VPS13A and generated a ChAc model mouse by using the gene targeting technique. In the process, we found diverse 5' and 3' transc...
