The pathogenic exon 1 HTT protein is produced by incomplete splicing in Huntington’s disease patients

Abstract We have previously shown that exon 1 of the huntingtin gene does not always splice to exon 2 resulting in the production of a small polyadenylated mRNA (HTTexon1) that encodes the highly pathogenic exon 1 HTT protein. The level of this read-through product is proportional to CAG repeat leng...
