Splicing complexity as a pivotal feature of alternative exons in mammalian species

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2023
Background As a significant process of post-transcriptional gene expression regulation in eukaryotic cells, alternative splicing (AS) of exons greatly contributes to the complexity of the transcriptome and indirectly enriches the protein repertoires.

Protein Modularity of Alternatively Spliced Exons Is Associated with Tissue-Specific Regulation of Alternative Splicing. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2005
Recent comparative genomic analysis of alternative splicing has shown that protein modularity is an important criterion for functional alternative splicing events.

Comparative component analysis of exons with different splicing frequencies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
Transcriptional isoforms are not just random combinations of exons. What has caused exons to be differentially spliced and whether exons with different splicing frequencies are subjected to divergent regulation by potential elements or splicing signals ...

Crossing the Exon [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2010
Pathways of intron/exon specification that drive spliceosome assembly remain unclear. In this issue of Molecular Cell, Schneider et al. (2010) extensively characterize complexes formed on exons, demonstrating unexpected components and providing insights into the switch from cross-exon to cross-intron interactions.

The Exon-Based Transcriptomic Analysis of Parkinson’s Disease

open access: yesBiomolecules
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease with a complicated pathophysiology and diagnostics. Blood-based whole transcriptome analysis of the longitudinal PPMI cohort was performed with a focus on the change in the expression of exons to ...

The "alternative" choice of constitutive exons throughout evolution. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2007
Alternative cassette exons are known to originate from two processes-exonization of intronic sequences and exon shuffling. Herein, we suggest an additional mechanism by which constitutively spliced exons become alternative cassette exons during evolution.

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

Conserved structural motifs in PAS, LOV, and CRY proteins regulate circadian rhythms and are therapeutic targets

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cryptochrome and PAS/LOV proteins play intricate roles in circadian clocks where they act as both sensors and mediators of protein–protein interactions. Their ubiquitous presence in signaling networks has positioned them as targets for small‐molecule therapeutics. This review provides a structural introduction to these protein families.

Abundance of clinical variants in exons included in multiple transcripts

open access: yesHuman Genomics, 2018
Previous studies showed that the magnitude of selection pressure in constitutive exons is higher than that in alternatively spliced exons. The intensity of selection was also shown to be depended on the inclusion level of exons: the number of transcripts

Identification of candidate genes of intellectual disability by single-gene deletions/amplifications mapping using chromosomal microarray analysis

open access: yesEuropean Psychiatry, 2022
Introduction Disease-causing deletions/amplifications may include a single gene, several exons or single/part of exon, contributing to detection of novel pathogenic genes. The localization of single-gene deletion/amplification within the gene can affect
