A unified mechanism for intron and exon definition and back-splicing [PDF]
Nature, 2019 The molecular mechanisms of exon definition and back-splicing are fundamental unanswered questions in pre-mRNA splicing. Here we report cryo-electron microscopy structures of the yeast spliceosomal E complex assembled on introns, providing a view of the ...

Mutation analysis of exon 5 of PAH gene in phenylketonuria patients from Golestan Province, Iran [PDF]
Journal of Shahrekord University of Medical Sciences, 2022 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
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022 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]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2015 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.

Microorganisms, 2022 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
BLDE University Journal of Health Sciences, 2020 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
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 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 ...
