Expand+Functional selection and systematic analysis of intronic splicing elements identify active sequence motifs and associated splicing factors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Despite the critical role of pre-mRNA splicing in generating proteomic diversity and regulating gene expression, the sequence composition and function of intronic splicing regulatory elements (ISREs) have not been well elucidated.

Familial MTC with RET exon 8 Gly533Cys mutation: origin and prevalence of second malignancy

open access: yesEndocrine Connections, 2017
Introduction: High prevalence of RET p.Gly533Cys (c.1597G > T) has been found in familial MTC in Greece (exon 8 fMTC). We studied their origin and compared clinical characteristics with non-exon 8 fMTC. Methods: 102 fMTC (FMTC and MEN2A) patients (31.4%

The influence of 5-HT(2C) and MDR1 genetic polymorphisms on antipsychotic-induced weight gain in female schizophrenic patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We investigated the relationships between functional genetic variants of the 5-HT(2C) receptor and multidrug-resistant protein (MDR1), coding for P-glycoprotein, and second generation antipsychotic (SDA)-induced weight gain among 108 female schizophrenic

UDP‐glucose dehydrogenase variants cause dystroglycanopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract UDP‐glucose dehydrogenase (UGDH) variants have been associated with hypotonia, developmental delay, and epilepsy. We report the first pathologic evidence of dystroglycanopathy in siblings with UGDH variants. Both presented around 6 months with developmental delay and elevated creatinine kinase.

Development of algorithms and software for classification of nucleotide sequences

open access: yesInformatika, 2019
Coding and non-coding nucleotide sequences of the human reference genome have been investigated. Seven models of vectorization of nucleotide sequences based on mono-, bi-, trigram nucleotide frequencies, parameters of the category-position-frequency ...

A Novel CHMP2B Splicing Variant in Atypical Presentation of Familial Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT C‐truncating variants in the charged multivesicular body protein 2B (CHMP2B) gene are a rare cause of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), previously identified only in Denmark, Belgium, and China. We report a novel CHMP2B splice‐site variant (c.35‐1G>A) associated with familial FTLD in Spain. The cases were two monozygotic male twins who

Differential GC Content between Exons and Introns Establishes Distinct Strategies of Splice-Site Recognition

open access: yesCell Reports, 2012
During evolution segments of homeothermic genomes underwent a GC content increase. Our analyses reveal that two exon-intron architectures have evolved from an ancestral state of low GC content exons flanked by short introns with a lower GC content.

Enhancement of SMN2 Exon 7 Inclusion by Antisense Oligonucleotides Targeting the Exon

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2007
Several strategies have been pursued to increase the extent of exon 7 inclusion during splicing of SMN2 (survival of motor neuron 2) transcripts, for eventual therapeutic use in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a genetic neuromuscular disease. Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) that target an exon or its flanking splice sites usually promote exon skipping.
