“…Using NCBI Primer-BLAST, we designed two sets of primers for each spliced gene; exon 4 forward and exon 6 reverse primers for exon 5 splicing, and exon 6 forward and exon 9 reverse primers for exons 7 and 8 splicing. In addition, we examined splicing patterns of other genes controlled by MBNL2: ADD1 exon 15, CACNA1D exon 11, CLASP2 exon 23a and 23b, CSCNK1D exon 9, KCNMA1 exon 27a, TANC2 exon 22a, GRIN1 exon 4, MAPT exon 2 and exon 12, using the primers used in our previous report [3, 7] (Tables 1 and 2).…”
