Fig. 1From: Toward a clinical diagnostic pipeline for SPINK1 intronic variantsResults from the cell culture-based full-length gene assay. a, b RT-PCR analyses of HEK293T cells transfected with full-length SPINK1 gene expression constructs carrying respectively the wild-type and indicated intronic variants. Normal transcripts (confirmed by sequencing) are indicated by arrows. In b, the lower bands generated by c.194 + 2 T > C and c.194 + 5G > A were found to be identical by sequencing, with exon 3 being skipped. See Fig. 2 for the precise splicing outcomes of the three recently reported SPINK1 splice site variantsBack to article page
