Since the assay on demand primer and probe available from ABI for Smn exon 7 are too close or overlap the C-T and 2B mutations and could hinder interpretation of results, we designed and validated FL-Smn and Δ7Smn assays to specifically amplify Smn transcripts with similar efficiencies between the WT, C-T and 2B mutations and not cross react with human SMN.
