Explain a microwalk assay and how it pertains to SMA

ASOs "walked" across this region of the RNA to identify the positional effects of specific nucleotides on the splicing of exon 7. The purpose was to precisely map which intronic positions influence exon 7 inclusion or skipping, as skipping of exon 7 in SMN2 leads to reduced functional SMN protein and causes SMA.
