Splicing therapeutics in SMN2 and APOB [PDF]

, 2009
Splicing therapeutics are defined as the deliberate modification of RNA splicing to achieve therapeutic goals. Various techniques for splicing therapeutics have been described, and most of these involve the use of antisense oligonucleotide-based ...

Operon conservation and the evolution of trans-splicing in the phylum Nematoda [PDF]

, 2006
The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans is unique among model animals in that many of its genes are cotranscribed as polycistronic pre-mRNAs from operons.

Functional characterization of Ysh1p, the yeast endonuclease involved in 3" end processing and in transcription termination of RNA polymerase II transcripts [PDF]

, 2008
Eukaryotic RNA polymerase II (RNAP II) is involved in the synthesis of two major classes of transcripts: messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and small nuclear and small nucleolar RNAs.

Functional coordination of alternative splicing in the mammalian central nervous system [PDF]

, 2007
BACKGROUND: Alternative splicing (AS) functions to expand proteomic complexity and plays numerous important roles in gene regulation. However, the extent to which AS coordinates functions in a cell and tissue type specific manner is not known.

Development of an in vitro pre-mRNA splicing assay using plant nuclear extract

Plant Methods, 2018
Background Pre-mRNA splicing is an essential post-transcriptional process in all eukaryotes. In vitro splicing systems using nuclear or cytoplasmic extracts from mammalian cells, yeast, and Drosophila have provided a wealth of mechanistic insights into ...

Unexpected role of the steroid-deficiency protein ecdysoneless in pre-mRNA splicing. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2014
The steroid hormone ecdysone coordinates insect growth and development, directing the major postembryonic transition of forms, metamorphosis. The steroid-deficient ecdysoneless1 (ecd1) strain of Drosophila melanogaster has long served to assess the ...

Biochemical characterization and three-dimensional structure analysis of the yeast cleavage and polyadenylation factor CPF [PDF]

, 2008
In eukaryotes, protein-encoding genes are transcribed in the nucleus by RNA polymerase II (RNAP II). Before the gene transcript (pre-mRNA) is transported to the cytoplasm and can function in translation, it has to undergo three specific maturation ...

Minigene splicing assays reveal new insights into exonic variants of the SLC12A3 gene in Gitelman syndrome

Molecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2023
Background Gitelman syndrome (GS) is a type of salt‐losing tubular disease, most of which is caused by SLC12A3 gene variants, and missense variants account for the majority.

Alternative splicing and extensive RNA editing of human TPH2 transcripts. [PDF]

, 2010
Brain serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmission plays a key role in the regulation of mood and has been implicated in a variety of neuropsychiatric conditions. Tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of 5-HT.

The Splicing Factor hnRNP M Is a Critical Regulator of Innate Immune Gene Expression in Macrophages

Cell Reports, 2019
Summary: While transcriptional control of innate immune gene expression is well characterized, almost nothing is known about how pre-mRNA splicing decisions influence, or are influenced by, macrophage activation.
