Mutation analysis of exon 5 of PAH gene in phenylketonuria patients from Golestan Province, Iran [PDF]
Background and aims: In the phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) gene, various mutations are mainly responsible for phenylketonuria (PKU). After thalassemia, PKU is considered as the most common autosomal recessive disease among Iranian population. Therefore,

A novel AIRE mutation leads to autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type-1
Autoimmune polyendocrine syndrome type-1 (APS-1) is a rare inherited monogenic autoimmune disease characterized by the presence of at least two of three following major clinical features: chronic mucocutaneous candidiasis, hypoparathyroidism, and adrenal

JuncDB: an exon–exon junction database [PDF]
Intron positions upon the mRNA transcript are sometimes remarkably conserved even across distantly related eukaryotic species. This has made the comparison of intron-exon architectures across orthologous transcripts a very useful tool for studying various evolutionary processes.

The conventionally clear distinction between exons and introns in eukaryotic genes is actually blurred. To illustrate this point, consider sequences that are retained in mature mRNAs about 50% of the time: how should they be classified?

Molecular Profiling of FIX (FACTOR 9) Gene of Hemophilia B in Karnataka
Introduction: Haemophilia is one of the “Bleeder Disorder” that causes abnormal bleeding or poor blood clotting. It occurs due to the defect in the clotting factors even in their functions and in some cases structures are altered.

Gene Architecture Facilitates Intron-Mediated Enhancement of Transcription
Introns impact several vital aspects of eukaryotic organisms like proteomic plasticity, genomic stability, stress response and gene expression. A role for introns in the regulation of gene expression at the level of transcription has been known for more ...

EXFI: Exon and splice graph prediction without a reference genome
For population genetic studies in nonmodel organisms, it is important to use every single source of genomic information. This paper presents EXFI, a Python pipeline that predicts the splice graph and exon sequences using an assembled transcriptome and ...
