The vc7 allele affects spicing of mitfa. A) Electropherogram of sequence obtained from mitfavc7 allele. B) Location of vc7 mutation in genomic sequence. C) Semi-quantitative RT/PCR shows that missplicing is not temperature-sensitive. vc7 results in transcripts that (a) include intron 6 and (c) skip exon 6, in addition to correctly-spliced transcript (b). M, 200 basepair ladder; m, 100 basepair ladder. D) Reading frame is preserved in aberrantly-spliced transcripts a and c.
