Use of a Fluorescent Aptamer RNA as an Exonic Sequence to Analyze Self-Splicing Ability of a Group I Intron from Structured RNAs

Biology, 2016
Group I self-splicing intron constitutes an important class of functional RNA molecules that can promote chemical transformation. Although the fundamental mechanism of the auto-excision from its precursor RNA has been established, convenient assay ...

A Novel CHMP2B Splicing Variant in Atypical Presentation of Familial Frontotemporal Lobar Degeneration

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT C‐truncating variants in the charged multivesicular body protein 2B (CHMP2B) gene are a rare cause of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), previously identified only in Denmark, Belgium, and China. We report a novel CHMP2B splice‐site variant (c.35‐1G>A) associated with familial FTLD in Spain. The cases were two monozygotic male twins who

Intronic MicroRNA (miRNA) [PDF]

BioMed Research International, 2006
Nearly 97% of the human genome is composed of noncoding DNA, which varies from one species to another. Changes in these sequences often manifest themselves in clinical and circumstantial malfunction. Numerous genes in these non‐protein‐coding regions encode microRNAs, which are responsible for RNA‐mediated gene silencing through RNA interference (RNAi)‐

Influence of Dystrophin Isoform Deficiency on Motor Development in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective In Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), lack of the shorter dystrophin isoforms Dp140 and Dp71 is associated with increased central nervous system (CNS) involvement. We aimed to investigate how CNS involvement affects motor development in young DMD boys.

Whole genome sequencing reveals novel IGHMBP2 variant leading to unique cryptic splice‐site and Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth phenotype with early onset symptoms

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2019
Background Rare variants (RV) in immunoglobulin mu‐binding protein 2 (IGHMBP2) [OMIM 600502] can cause an autosomal recessive type of Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth (CMT) disease [OMIM 616155], an inherited peripheral neuropathy.

Group II Intron Self-Splicing.

Annual Review of Biophysics, 2016
Group II introns are large, autocatalytic ribozymes that catalyze RNA splicing and retrotransposition. Splicing by group II introns plays a major role in the metabolism of plants, fungi, and yeast and contributes to genetic variation in many bacteria ...

Retrotransposon Expression Is Upregulated in Adulthood and Suppressed during Regeneration of the Limb in the Axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum)

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
The axolotl's remarkable regenerative abilities decline with age, the causes may include the numerous repetitive elements within its genome. This study uncovers how Ty3 retrotransposons and coexpression networks involving muscle and immune pathways respond to aging and regeneration, suggesting that transposons respond to physiological shifts and may ...
