Bone marrow cells from patients with Shwachman‐Diamond syndrome abnormally express genes involved in ribosome biogenesis and RNA processing

Shwachman-Diamond Syndrome (SDS) is a multi-system genetic disorder with bone marrow failure. SBDS, the gene associated with SDS, has been postulated to play a role in ribosome biogenesis and RNA processing, but its functions are still unknown. To study whether these pathways are interrupted when Sbds protein is lost, we studied the expression of related genes in patient SBDS-/- cells by an oligonucleotide microarray. We first analysed …
