Over 15 years ago, researchers linked a defect in a gene called survival motor neuron - or SMN - with the fatal disease spinal muscular atrophy. Because SMN had a role in assembling the intracellular machinery that processes genetic material, it was assumed that faulty processing was to blame. Now, University of North Carolina scientists have discovered that this commonly held assumption is wrong and that a separate role of the SMN gene - still not completely elucidated - is likely responsible for the disease's manifestations. The research appears in the journal Cell Reports...
