Cancer is a multifaceted disease that involves several molecular mechanisms including changes in gene expression. Two important processes altered in cancer that lead to changes in gene expression include altered microRNA (miRNA) expression and aberrant ...

UPF3 suppresses aberrant spliced mRNA in Arabidopsis [PDF]
SummaryIt has been reported that eukaryotic organisms have a nonsense‐mediated mRNA decay (NMD) system to exclude aberrant mRNAs that produce truncated proteins. NMD is an RNA surveillance pathway that degrades mRNAs possessing premature translation termination codons (PTCs), thus avoiding production of possibly toxic truncated proteins.

A mutation in a splicing factor that causes retinitis pigmentosa has a transcriptome-wide effect on mRNA splicing [PDF]
Background: Substantial progress has been made in the identification of sequence elements that control mRNA splicing and the genetic variants in these elements that alter mRNA splicing (referred to as splicing quantitative trait loci – sQTLs).

Hypoxia-induced alternative splicing in endothelial cells [PDF]
Background: Adaptation to low oxygen by changing gene expression is vitally important for cell survival and tissue development. The sprouting of new blood vessels, initiated from endothelial cells, restores the oxygen supply of ischemic tissues.

COL4A5 Intronic Variants at Third to Fifth Nucleotides Cause Alport Syndrome
Introduction: Alport syndrome (AS) is an inherited kidney disease caused by variants in the COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5 genes, resulting in type IV collagen abnormalities.

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein forms nuclear condensates and regulates alternative splicing
Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome is caused by mutations in WASP, but the underlying mechanisms remain to be explored. Here the authors reveal that WASP deficiency results in aberrant RNA splicing, and that WASP regulates the transcription of splicing factor ...

Mechanisms of change in protein architecture [PDF]
Proteins are the basic building blocks and functional units in all living organisms. Moreover, differences between species can frequently be explained with differences in their protein complements.

A splicing-dependent transcriptional checkpoint associated with prespliceosome formation [PDF]
There is good evidence for functional interactions between splicing and transcription in eukaryotes, but how and why these processes are coupled remain unknown.
