Regulation of splicing factors by alternative splicing and NMD is conserved between kingdoms yet evolutionarily flexible. [PDF]
, 2015 Ultraconserved elements, unusually long regions of perfect sequence identity, are found in genes encoding numerous RNA-binding proteins including arginine-serine rich (SR) splicing factors.

The role of alternative pre-mRNA splicing in cancer progression
Cancer Cell International, 2023 Alternative pre-mRNA splicing is a critical mechanism that generates multiple mRNA from a single gene, thereby increasing the diversity of the proteome. Recent research has highlighted the significance of specific splicing isoforms in cellular processes,

Evolution of NCoR-1 and NCoR-2 corepressor alternative mRNA splicing in placental mammals. [PDF]
, 2019 ObjectiveThe NCoR-1 and NCoR-2 corepressors are products of an early gene duplication near the beginning of vertebrate evolution and play both overlapping and divergent roles in development and physiology.

Differential Interleukin-2 Transcription Kinetics Render Mouse but Not Human T Cells Vulnerable to Splicing Inhibition Early after Activation [PDF]
, 2019 T cells are nodal players in the adaptive immune response against pathogens and malignant cells. Alternative splicing plays a crucial role in T cell activation, which is analyzed mainly at later time points upon stimulation. Here we have discovered a 2-h

Interrogation of alternative splicing events in duplicated genes during evolution
BMC Genomics, 2011 Background Gene duplication provides resources for developing novel genes and new functions while retaining the original functions. In addition, alternative splicing could increase the complexity of expression at the transcriptome and proteome level ...

A Novel Prognostic Index Based on Alternative Splicing in Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma
Frontiers in Genetics, 2020 BackgroundPapillary renal cell carcinoma (pRCC) is a heterogeneous multifocal or isolated tumor with an invasive phenotype. Previous studies presented that alternative splicing, as a crucial posttranscriptional regulator in gene expression, is associated

Alternative splicing regulation and its therapeutic potential in bladder cancer
Frontiers in OncologyBladder cancer is one of the leading causes of mortality globally. The development of bladder cancer is closely associated with alternative splicing, which regulates human gene expression and enhances the diversity of functional proteins.
