Nat. Rev. Neurol. doi:10.1038/nrneurol.2018.4 Figure 1 Genetics of SMA Figure 1 | Genetics of SMA. a | Overview of the human chromosome 5q13 locus, which contains a telomeric (SMN1) and a centromeric (SMN2) copy of the two human SMN genes. This genomic locus is highly variable, with ∼200 kb duplications commonly observed that are associated with the copy number variability for SMN1 and SMN2. b | Splicing and protein production from SMN1 and SMN2 mRNA. Splicing of SMN1 pre-mRNA produces full-length SMN1 mRNA that is translated into full-length, functional survival motor neuron protein (SMN). Full-length SMN contains multiple functional domains that mediate its interaction, function and localization, including a Tudor domain (which regulates the interaction of SMN with RGG-domain-containing proteins, including Sm proteins), a proline-rich region (which regulates SMN–profilin interactions) and a YG-box domain (which regulates SMN self-oligomerization). By contrast, splicing of SMN2 pre-mRNA produces full-length mRNA in only a minority (∼10%) of cases. Most splicing of SMN2 pre-mRNA produces SMN2 mRNA that lacks exon 7 (SMN2Δ7), which results in a truncated protein that is rapidly degraded. Importantly, the exact tissue-dependent and time-dependent regulation of SMN expression, including SMN2-derived full-length SMN, remains to be determined. Exon 8 is non-coding and, therefore, is not represented as part of the full-length protein; however, after alternative splicing of SMNΔ7, four amino acids of exon 8 are included before translation is terminated. c | Exon 7 splicing in SMN1 and SMN2. In SMN1, the CAGACAA site at the 5′ end of exon 7 represents an exonic splice enhancer (ESE) sequence. This sequence is associated with binding of splicing factors that normally promote its inclusion and thereby the formation of full-length SMN1 protein. The C-to-T transition within this sequence that differentiates SMN2 from SMN1 leads to formation of an exonic splice suppressor (ESS), which, through binding of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (hnRNP A1), promotes the exclusion of exon 7 and thereby the predominant production of SMN2Δ7 mRNA and unstable SMNΔ7 protein. Intronic splice silencer N1 (ISS-N1) contains two hnRNP A1 binding sites and has a much stronger effect on exon 7 exclusion than does the C-to-T transition in the exonic sequence. Nusinersen and other antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) target ISS-N1, thereby preventing the binding of hnRNP A1 and promoting exon 7 inclusion and the production of full-length SMN. Next-generation ASOs and small molecules targeting SMN2 splicing also include compounds that target other splicing elements, such as element 1 and 2. Groen, E. J. N. et al.
