Howard and his colleagues have shown that treatment of cells expressing some of these truncation mutants (e.g., G542X and R553X) with different aminoglycoside antibiotics results in "translational read-through" and the production of low levels of a full-length and functional CFTR protein (Howard et al., 1996).
