They showed that the splice site at the 3' end of exon 7 was mutated from TAG GTATGT to TAG GTGTTG (where underlined sequence is the 3' end of exon 7 and ETn insertion sequence is in bold) and predicted that this site would be nonfunctional, thereby abolishing splicing of exon 7 to exon 8. They proposed that the T Wis allele would produce a transcript comprised of exons 1 through 7 followed by read-through transcription of the ETn element, resulting in a modified C-terminal end, or alternatively, that upstream splice donor sites would be used, shortening the transcript and protein product.
