Obstacles to detecting isoforms using full-length scRNA-seq data
Background Early single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) studies suggested that it was unusual to see more than one isoform being produced from a gene in a single cell, even when multiple isoforms were detected in matched bulk RNA-seq samples.

Isoform-level gene signature improves prognostic stratification and accurately classifies glioblastoma subtypes. [PDF]
Molecular stratification of tumors is essential for developing personalized therapies. Although patient stratification strategies have been successful; computational methods to accurately translate the gene-signature from high-throughput platform to a ...

The Coevolution of Insect Muscle TpnT and TpnI Gene Isoforms [PDF]
In bilaterians, the main regulator of muscle contraction is the troponin (Tpn) complex, comprising three closely interacting subunits (C, T, and I). To understand how evolutionary forces drive molecular change in protein complexes, we have compared the gene structures and expression patterns of Tpn genes in insects. In this class, while TpnC is encoded

Vascular endothelial‐cadherin as a marker of endothelial injury in preclinical Alzheimer disease
Abstract Objective Endothelial dysfunction is an early and prevalent pathology in Alzheimer disease (AD). We here investigate the value of vascular endothelial‐cadherin (VEC) as a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) marker of endothelial injury in preclinical AD.

Transcript isoforms regulated by alternative splicing can substantially impact carcinogenesis, leading to a need to obtain clues for both gene differential expression and malfunctions of isoform distributions in cancer studies.

One-two punch mechanism of gene repression: a fresh perspective on gene regulation. [PDF]
Cellular differentiation depends on temporally controlled waves of gene activation and inactivation that ultimately transform one cell type into another.

Novel Chicken Actin Gene: Third Cytoplasmic Isoform [PDF]
We identified a novel chicken actin gene. The actin protein deduced from its nucleotide sequence very closely resembles the vertebrate cytoplasmic actins; accordingly, we classified this gene as a nonmuscle type. We adopted the convention for indicating the nonmuscle actins of the class Amphibia (Vandekerckhove et al., J. Mol. Biol.

Integrating large-scale functional genomic data has significantly accelerated our understanding of gene functions. However, no algorithm has been developed to differentiate functions for isoforms of the same gene using high-throughput genomic data.

Integrating splice-isoform expression into genome-scale models characterizes breast cancer metabolism [PDF]
Motivation: Despite being often perceived as the main contributors to cell fate and physiology, genes alone cannot predict cellular phenotype. During the process of gene expression, 95% of human genes can code for multiple proteins due to alternative splicing.

Paraoxonase 2 protein is spatially expressed in the human placenta and selectively reduced in labour [PDF]
Humans parturition involves interaction of hormonal, neurological, mechanical stretch and inflammatory pathways and the placenta plays a crucial role.
