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

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 ...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) are caused by mutations in the dystrophin gene. We studied 106 patients with a diagnosis of probable DMD/BMD by analyzing 20 exons of the dystrophin gene in their blood and, in some of

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.

Using a sensitive assay for RNA expression, we identified several abnormally spliced transcripts in which exons from a candidate tumor suppressor gene (DCC) were scrambled during the splicing process in vivo. Cloning and sequencing of PCR-amplified segments of the abnormally spliced transcripts showed that exons were joined accurately at consensus ...

The angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) gene family of Anopheles gambiae [PDF]
Background Members of the M2 family of peptidases, related to mammalian angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), play important roles in regulating a number of physiological processes.

Clinical exome performance for reporting secondary genetic findings. [PDF]
BACKGROUND : Reporting clinically actionable incidental genetic findings in the course of clinical exome testing is recommended by the American College of Medical Genet- ics and Genomics (ACMG).

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

Inhomogeneous DNA: conducting exons and insulating introns
Parts of DNA sequences known as exons and introns play very different role in coding and storage of genetic information. Here we show that their conducting properties are also very different.
