General description

Survival of Motor Neuron (SMN) is expressed from two linked paralogous genes, SMN1 and SMN2. SMNs are primarily localized in the cytoplasm and nuclear gems of all cells, where they are understood to mediate the assembly of spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles (snRNPs). They also play a role in the metabolism of snoRNPs and are required for the splicing of pre-mRNA in the nucleus. The progressive loss of functional SMNs in the anterior horn of the spinal cord is a critical cause of Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), an autosomal recessive neuromuscular disease. There are three known types of childhood-onset SMA, in addition to a fourth type that is characterized by adult-onset SMA.

Immunogen

MBP-tagged recombinant protein corresponding to human SMN2.

Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) have emerged as one of the most innovative new genetic drug modalities. However, their high molecular weight limits their bioavailability for otherwise-treatable neurological disorders. We investigated conjugation of ASOs to an antibody against the murine transferrin receptor

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by mutation or deletion of survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) and retention of SMN2 leading to SMN protein deficiency. We developed an immortalized mouse embryonic fibroblast (iMEF) line in which full-length wild-type Smn (flwt-Smn)
