Although in silico tools predicted minimal splicing impact, functional minigene assays demonstrate that the synonymous MYH6 c.804G>C variant induces partial exon 10 skipping (~6.8% in HEK293T cells and ~4.7% in HeLa cells), supporting its potential contribution to HCM pathogenesis.

Pre‐Encoded IFN‐I Sensitivity Exacerbates Memory T Cell Senescence in Solid Tumors
Type I interferon (IFN‐I) signaling promotes p21‐dependent cell cycle arrest in senescent tumor‐specific memory T cells, resulting in poor proliferative responses and solid tumor regression during cancer vaccination. Conversely, IFNα/β receptor blockade reinvigorates T cell proliferation to regress solid tumors and is more effective with increasing ...

Functional analysis of MEIS2 splice site variant c.438 + 1G>T in a congenital heart patient
AimsMEIS2 (NCBI:4212; OMIM:601740) is associated with cleft palate, atrial septal defect, and varying degrees of intellectual disability. The aim of this study is to investigate the value of minigene splicing assay in the diagnosis of congenital heart ...

N‐acetyltransferase 10 (NAT10) catalyses N4‐acetylcytidine (ac4C) modification of PML pre‐mRNA, shifting splicing from the senescence‐promoting PML‐FL to the senescence‐inhibiting PML‐S isoform via SRSF1. This rejuvenates adipose‐derived stem cells (ADSCs) by reducing senescence markers and senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP), thereby ...

Exploring the role of splicing in TP53 variant pathogenicity through predictions and minigene assays
Abstract Background TP53 variant classification benefits from the availability of large-scale functional data for missense variants generated using cDNA-based assays. However, absence of comprehensive splicing assay data for TP53 confounds the classification of the subset of predicted missense and synonymous variants ...

This study developed a PCR‐based fragment analysis assay for UGT1A1 rs3064744 targeting TA5 (*36), TA6 (*1), TA7 (*28), and TA8 (*37). The assay was CLIA validated with data showing 100% concordance and a sensitivity of 0.5 ng/uL. The assay was then implemented in a patient cohort of n = 940 and the results compared with PharmacoScan.

Molecular dynamics and minigene assay of a splicing COL4A5 gene variant causing Alport syndrome
Abstract Alport syndrome (AS; OMIM#308940) is a progressive hereditary kidney disease characterized by hearing loss and ocular abnormalities. According to the mode of inheritance, AS has three subtypes: X-linked (XL; OMIM#301050), autosomal recessive (AR; OMIM#203780), and autosomal dominant (AD; OMIM#104200).
