Aberrant RNA Splicing in Cancer [PDF]
RNA splicing, the enzymatic process of removing segments of premature RNA to produce mature RNA, is a key mediator of proteome diversity and regulator of gene expression. Increased systematic sequencing of the genome and transcriptome of cancers has identified a variety of means by which RNA splicing is altered in cancer relative to normal cells ...

The Contribution of COL4A5 Splicing Variants to the Pathogenesis of X-Linked Alport Syndrome
X-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS) is caused by pathogenic variants in COL4A5 and is characterized by progressive kidney disease, hearing loss, and ocular abnormalities.

Therapeutic Targeting of Alternative Splicing: A New Frontier in Cancer Treatment
The ability for cells to harness alternative splicing enables them to diversify their proteome in order to carry out complex biological functions and adapt to external and internal stimuli. The spliceosome is the multiprotein-RNA complex charged with the

Background Long-read sequencing of full-length cDNAs enables the detection of structures of aberrant splicing isoforms in cancer cells. These isoforms are occasionally translated, presented by HLA molecules, and recognized as neoantigens. This study used

Aberrant RNA splicing and therapeutic opportunities in cancers [PDF]
AbstractThere has been accumulating evidence that RNA splicing is frequently dysregulated in a variety of cancers and that hotspot mutations affecting key splicing factors, SF3B1, SRSF2 and U2AF1, are commonly enriched across cancers, strongly suggesting that aberrant RNA splicing is a new class of hallmark that contributes to the initiation and/or ...

The aberrant splicing of BAF45d links splicing regulation and transcription in glioblastoma [PDF]
Glioblastoma, the most aggressive primary brain tumor, is genetically heterogeneous. Alternative splicing (AS) plays a key role in numerous pathologies, including cancer. The objectives of our study were to determine whether aberrant AS could play a role in the malignant phenotype of glioma and to understand the mechanism underlying its aberrant ...

Alternative splicing in breast cancer
Alternative splicing allows a gene to produce multiple proteins and is the main source of human proteome diversity. Aberrant regulation of alternative splicing produces proteins with different structures and can lead to altered protein function ...

Retroviral Splicing Suppressor Sequesters a 3′ Splice Site in a 50S Aberrant Splicing Complex [PDF]
Retroviral replication requires both spliced and unspliced mRNAs. Splicing suppression of avian retroviral RNA depends in part upon a cis-acting element within the gag gene called the negative regulator of splicing (NRS). The NRS, linked to a downstream intron and exon (NRS-Ad3'), was not capable of splicing in vitro.

Tetracycline aptamer-controlled regulation of pre-mRNA splicing in yeast [PDF]
Splicing of pre-mRNA is a critical step in mRNA maturation and disturbances cause several genetic disorders. We apply the synthetic tetracycline (tc)-binding riboswitch to establish a gene expression system for conditional tc-dependent control of pre ...
