In molecular biology, exon skipping is a form of RNA splicing used to cause cells to “skip” over faulty or misaligned sections  of genetic code, leading to a truncated but still functional protein despite the genetic mutation. Exon-skipping mechanism Exon skipping as a treatment for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD)
