Stathmin 2 mRNA splicing

Molecular classification
mRNA splicing, RNA splicing factor
01

Overview

Stathmin 2 (STMN2) mRNA splicing is a critical process regulated by TDP-43. Aberrant splicing, particularly cryptic exon inclusion, leads to truncated, non-functional STMN2 protein and is implicated in neurodegenerative diseases such as ALS and FTD. Therapeutic strategies aim to restore proper STMN2 splicing using ASOs or RNA-targeted CRISPR effectors.

Mechanism of action

Antisense oligonucleotides bind near cryptic splice sites to block aberrant exon inclusion and restore full-length transcript. RNA-targeted CRISPR effectors block access to cryptic splice/polyA sites via steric hindrance.
