This study revealed a novel homozygous splicing-site mutation associated with the Jk(a-b-) phenotype in Chinese population. Our results emphasise the importance of the in vitro functional method minigene splicing assay, while also acknowledging its potential limitations when compared to cDNA sequencing.
