The role of transposable elements in the evolution of non-mammalian vertebrates and invertebrates [PDF]
Background: Transposable elements (TEs) have played an important role in the diversification and enrichment of mammalian transcriptomes through various mechanisms such as exonization and intronization (the birth of new exons/introns from previously intronic/exonic sequences, respectively), and insertion into first and last exons.

Abstract Capmatinib is a highly specific, potent, and selective mesenchymal–epithelial transition factor inhibitor predominantly eliminated by cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 and aldehyde oxidase. Here, we investigated the effects of a strong CYP3A inhibitor (itraconazole) and a strong CYP3A inducer (rifampicin) on single‐dose pharmacokinetics of capmatinib.

Background ERBB2 exon 16 skipping is an alternatively spliced isoform of ERBB2, which was reported to lead to oncogenic activation of ERBB2 and could potentially cause tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) resistance in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) in ...

SERpredict: Detection of tissue- or tumor-specific isoforms generated through exonization of transposable elements [PDF]
Background: Transposed elements (TEs) are known to affect transcriptomes, because either new exons are generated from intronic transposed elements (this is called exonization), or the element inserts into the exon, leading to a new transcript. Several examples in the literature show that isoforms generated by an exonization are specific to a certain ...

Currently, there are no treatments for Alport syndrome, which is the second most commonly inherited kidney disease. Here we report the development of an exon-skipping therapy using an antisense-oligonucleotide (ASO) for severe male X-linked Alport ...

Biased exonization of transposed elements in duplicated genes: A lesson from the TIF-IA gene [PDF]
Background: Gene duplication and exonization of intronic transposed elements are two mechanisms that enhance genomic diversity. We examined whether there is less selection against exonization of transposed elements in duplicated genes than in single-copy genes.

Trio‐based whole‐exome sequencing (WES) and Sanger sequencing identified a novel splicing mutation c.431‐2A>G and a heterozygous truncating mutation c.1359_1361del in BRAT1 in the proband. In addition, our research demonstrated the intronic mutation could lead to aberrant mRNA splicing and further contributed to a better understanding and establishment

Antisense-induced exon skipping for duplications in Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Background Antisense-mediated exon skipping is currently one of the most promising therapeutic approaches for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). Using antisense oligonucleotides (AONs) targeting specific exons the DMD reading frame is restored and ...

Genetic variations of CD33 have been implicated as a susceptibility factor of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). A polymorphism on exon 2 of CD33, rs12459419, affects the alternative splicing of this exon.
