Ribonucleoprotein assembly: clues from spinal muscular atrophy.
???displayArticle.abstract???
Mutation or deletion of one of the two genes encoding a protein known as SMN has recently been shown to cause spinal muscular atrophy. The SMN protein has been found to be part of a multi-component complex that appears to function in the assembly of cellular ribonucleoprotein particles.
