Alternative Splicing: Emerging Roles in Anti-Aging Strategies
BiomoleculesAlternative splicing plays a fundamental role in gene expression and protein complexity. Aberrant splicing impairs cell homeostasis and is closely associated with aging and cellular senescence.

Complex Alternative Splicing [PDF]
, 2007 Alternative splicing is a powerful means of controlling gene expression and increasing protein diversity. Most genes express a limited number of mRNA isoforms, but there are several examples of genes that use alternative splicing to generate hundreds, thousands and even tens of thousands of isoforms.

Alternative Splicing in Apicomplexan Parasites
mBio, 2019 Alternative splicing is a widespread, essential, and complex component of gene regulation. Apicomplexan parasites have long been recognized to produce alternatively spliced transcripts for some genes and can produce multiple protein products that are ...

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,

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Biomolecular condensates formed by fused in sarcoma (FUS) are dissolved by high ATP concentrations yet persist in cells. Using a reconstituted system, we demonstrate that valosin‐containing protein (VCP), an AAA+ ATPase, counteracts ATP‐driven dissolution of FUS condensates through its D2 ATPase activity.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Embryo‐like structures (stembryos) are an innovative tool, but they are hindered by experimental variability and limited developmental potential. DNA methylation is crucial for mammalian development, but its status in stembryo models is poorly characterized.

Alternative splicing in addiction
Current Opinion in Genetics & DevelopmentAddiction is a chronic and relapsing medical condition characterized by the compulsive use of drugs or alcohol despite harmful consequences. While transcriptional regulation has long been recognized for its role in addiction, recent genome-wide analyses have uncovered widespread alternative splicing changes that shift protein isoform diversity in ...

Evolution of Alternative Splicing in Eudicots [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Alternative pre-mRNA splicing (AS) is prevalent in plants and is involved in many interactions between plants and environmental stresses. However, the patterns and underlying mechanisms of AS evolution in plants remain unclear. By analyzing the transcriptomes of four eudicot species, we revealed that the divergence of AS is largely due to the gains and
