Abstract
Dinucleotide CA repeats of variable length in an intron of the human endothelial nitric oxide synthase gene act as regulatory signals for splicing of the gene's pre-mRNA. Repeat length-dependent binding of hnRNP L to the repeats provides an intriguing link between splicing efficiency, nitric oxide synthesis and cardiovascular disease.Entities:
