Exon Inclusion Is Dependent on Predictable Exonic Splicing Enhancers [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biology, 2005
We have previously formulated a list of approximately 2,000 RNA octamers as putative exonic splicing enhancers (PESEs) based on a statistical comparison of human exonic and nonexonic sequences (X. H. Zhang and L. A. Chasin, Genes Dev. 18:1241-1250, 2004).

Large introns in relation to alternative splicing and gene evolution: a case study of Drosophila bruno-3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Background: Alternative splicing (AS) of maturing mRNA can generate structurally and functionally distinct transcripts from the same gene. Recent bioinformatic analyses of available genome databases inferred a positive correlation between intron length ...

Evaluation of a novel saliva-based epidermal growth factor receptor mutation detection for lung cancer: A pilot study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundThis article describes a pilot study evaluating a novel liquid biopsy system for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. The electric field-induced release and measurement (EFIRM) method utilizes an electrochemical biosensor for detecting ...

Frequencies of the MEFV Gene Mutations in Azerbaijan

open access: yesBalkan Journal of Medical Genetics, 2022
The MEFV (familial Mediterranean fever gene) researches were performed in the population of the Republic of Azerbaijan in 2016–2021. Seven mutations of the MEFV gene were identified in heterozygous, homozygous and compound homozygous conditions: R761H ...

In Vivo Recognition of a Vertebrate Mini-Exon as an Exon-Intron-Exon Unit

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biology, 1993
Very small vertebrate exons are problematic for RNA splicing because of the proximity of their 3' and 5' splice sites. In this study, we investigated the recognition of a constitutive 7-nucleotide mini-exon from the troponin I gene that resides quite close to the adjacent upstream exon.

POEM, A 3-dimensional exon taxonomy and patterns in untranslated exons [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2008
Abstract Background The existence of exons and introns has been known for thirty years. Despite this knowledge, there is a lack of formal research into the categorization of exons. Exon taxonomies used by researchers tend to be selected ad hoc or based on an information poor de-facto standard. Exons have been shown to

Saturation mutagenesis reveals manifold determinants of exon definition. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
To illuminate the extent and roles of exonic sequences in the splicing of human RNA transcripts, we conducted saturation mutagenesis of a 51-nt internal exon in a three-exon minigene.

Conservation of the Exon-Intron Structure of Long Intergenic Non-Coding RNA Genes in Eutherian Mammals

open access: yesLife, 2016
The abundance of mammalian long intergenic non-coding RNA (lincRNA) genes is high, yet their functions remain largely unknown. One possible way to study this important question is to use large-scale comparisons of various characteristics of lincRNA with ...

Prevalent use and evolution of exonic regulatory sequences in the human genome

open access: yesNatural Sciences, 2023
It has long been known that exons can serve as cis‐regulatory sequences, such as enhancers. However, the prevalence of such dual‐use of exons and how they evolve remain elusive.

Exon repetition in mRNA [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
The production of different transcripts (transcript heterogeneity) is a feature of many genes that may result in phenotypic variation. Several mechanisms, that occur at both the DNA and RNA level have been shown to contribute to this transcript heterogeneity in mammals, all of which involve either the rearrangement of sequences within a genome or the ...
