Both in DM1 cells and in transgenic mice demonstrating cardiac specific expression of expanded CTG tracts located in the DMPK 3′UTR, aberrant RNA splicing is observed in conjunction with the aggregation of Mbnl1 in the nuclear CUG foci and increased steady-state levels of Cug-bp1 [24]–[26]. The gene discussed is DMPK; the disease is myotonic dystrophy type 1.
