This spontaneous 64 base pair deletion includes the last 35 base pairs of exon 5 and the first 29 base pairs of intron 5, which includes the 5 prime splice donor site, and yields no normal transcript and two abnormal transcripts: a 740 bp transcript skipping only exon 5, which is predicted to causes a frame shift resulting in 12 incorrect amino acid substitutions beginning at residue 111 then a premature stop codon; and a 588 bp transcript skipping exons 4 and 5, which is predicted to delete 95 amino acids, residues 61-155.
