METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR MODULATING SPLICING AND TRANSLATION

Abstract:

Alternative splicing events in genes can lead to non-productive or less productive mRNA transcripts, and therapeutic agents which can target the alternative splicing events in genes can modulate the expression level of functional proteins in patients and/or inhibit aberrant protein expression. Provided herein are compositions and methods for modulating expression level of a target peptide sequence by modulating splicing of a pre-mRNA. Also provided herein are compositions and methods for treating a disease or condition caused by a deficient amount or activity of a functional target protein by modulating splicing of a pre-mRNA.
