Pervasive non-triplet alternative splicing drives functional isoform diversity. [PDF]

Nat Commun
Alternative mRNA splicing is an important mechanism for regulating gene expression and generating transcriptomic diversity. Most cases of alternative splicing studied to date are triplet, meaning that both isoforms retain the same translational reading ...

Alternative splicing across the tree of life. [PDF]

Elife
There is a growing understanding of how alternative splicing contributes to functional specialization and adaptation, especially in well-studied model organisms. However, its large-scale evolutionary dynamics remain poorly understood.

Temporal Dynamic Analysis of Alternative Splicing During Embryonic Development in Zebrafish

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Alternative splicing is pervasive in mammalian genomes and involved in embryo development, whereas research on crosstalk of alternative splicing and embryo development was largely restricted to mouse and human and the alternative splicing regulation ...

Alternative Splicing and Cancer

Journal of Nucleic Acids, 2012
Alternative splicing of premessenger RNAs is a key step in the gene expression process, which allows the synthesis of different products from the same gene and contributes to increase the complexity of the proteome coded by a limited number of genes. Specialized high-throughput technologies (RNA-Seq, splicing-sensitive microarrays) aiming at analyzing ...

Alternative splicing during fruit development among fleshy fruits

BMC Genomics, 2021
Background Alternative splicing (AS) is an important mechanism of posttranscriptional modification and dynamically regulates multiple physiological processes in plants, including fruit ripening.

Alternative splicing: Human disease and quantitative analysis from high-throughput sequencing

Computational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2021
Alternative splicing contributes to the majority of protein diversity in higher eukaryotes by allowing one gene to generate multiple distinct protein isoforms. It adds another regulation layer of gene expression.

Chromatin and Alternative Splicing [PDF]

Cold Spring Harbor Symposia on Quantitative Biology, 2010
Alternative splicing affects more than 90% of human genes. Coupling between transcription and splicing has become crucial in the complex network underlying alternative splicing regulation. Because chromatin is the real template for nuclear transcription, changes in its structure, but also in the "reading" and "writing" of the histone code, could ...

Alternative Splice in Alternative Lice [PDF]

Molecular Biology and Evolution, 2015
Genomic and transcriptomics analyses have revealed human head and body lice to be almost genetically identical; although con-specific, they nevertheless occupy distinct ecological niches and have differing feeding patterns. Most importantly, while head lice are not known to be vector competent, body lice can transmit three serious bacterial diseases ...

Global Survey of Alternative Splicing in Rice by Direct RNA Sequencing During Reproductive Development: Landscape and Genetic Regulation

Rice, 2021
Alternative splicing is a widespread phenomenon, which generates multiple isoforms of the gene product. Reproductive development is the key process for crop production. Although numerous forms of alternative splicing have been identified in model plants,

Alternative splicing and disease [PDF]

RNA Biology, 2008
Splicing is a molecular mechanism, by which introns are removed from an mRNA precursor and exons are ligated to form a mature mRNA. Mutations that cause defects in the splicing mechanism are known to be responsible for many diseases, including cystic fibrosis and familial dysautonomia.
