Intron‐dependent evolution: Preferred types of exons and introns [PDF]

FEBS Letters, 1987
Exon insertions and exon duplications, two major mechanisms of exon shuffling, are shown to involve modules that have introns of the same phase class at both their 5′‐ and 3′‐ends. At the sites of intronic recombinations exon insertions and duplications create new introns which belong to the same phase class as the recipient introns.

XBP1s Mediates Cross‐resistance to Combination Treatment of CDK4/6 Inhibitors plus Endocrine Therapy in Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Elevated spliced form of X‐box–binding protein 1 (XBP1) correlates with unfavorable responses to endocrine therapy plus CDK4/6 inhibitors in HR+/HER2− advanced breast cancer. XBP1s facilitates cell proliferation and G1/S transition by transcriptionally activating SND1, thereby activating the E2F1 pathway.

VDLIN: A Deep Learning‐Based Platform for Methylcobalamin‐Inspired Immunomodulatory Compound Screening

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using the convolutional neural network model VDLIN, Co7 is identified as a promising therapeutic candidate. Co7 demonstrates distinct advantages over MCB by effectively balancing anti‐inflammatory and immune‐stimulatory functions, making it a potential novel approach for immune modulation.

Choosing and Using Introns in Molecular Phylogenetics

Evolutionary Bioinformatics, 2007
Introns are now commonly used in molecular phylogenetics in an attempt to recover gene trees that are concordant with species trees, but there are a range of genomic, logistical and analytical considerations that are infrequently discussed in empirical ...

An Allele of Glutamate Formiminotransferase Triggers 5‐Methyl‐Tetrahydrofolate‐to‐MeFox Conversion and Facilitates Folate Biofortification in Maize

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work demonstrates the distinct roles of the glutamate formiminotransferase (GFT) enzyme in plants. The GFT triggers the conversion of 5‐methyl‐tetrahydrofolate to MeFox in plants, a process distinct from its role as a formiminotransferase in mammals.

Proposal of a new nomenclature for introns in protein-coding genes in fungal mitogenomes

IMA Fungus, 2019
Fungal mitochondrial genes are often invaded by group I or II introns, which represent an ideal marker for understanding fungal evolution. A standard nomenclature of mitochondrial introns is needed to avoid confusion when comparing different fungal ...

DKK3 Initially Preserves Acinar Integrity Through MEK‐Fos Signaling, but Later Switches to an Oncogenic Role in Pancreatic Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In pancreatic cancer, the protein DKK3 is found to play a complex role: it initially slows early tumor growth but later promotes tumor aggressiveness. DKK3 expression evolves during progression and drives cancer severity by orchestrating cellular and molecular signaling pathways.

Cyanobacterial ribosomal RNA genes with multiple, endonuclease-encoding group I introns

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2007
Background Group I introns are one of the four major classes of introns as defined by their distinct splicing mechanisms. Because they catalyze their own removal from precursor transcripts, group I introns are referred to as autocatalytic introns.
