Small molecule kinase inhibitors alleviate different molecular features of myotonic dystrophy type 1

Expandable (CTG)n repeats in the 3′ UTR of the DMPK gene are a cause of myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1), which leads to a toxic RNA gain-of-function disease. Mutant RNAs with expanded CUG repeats are retained in the nucleus and aggregate in discrete inclusions. These foci sequester splicing factors...
