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

open access: yes, 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

open access: yesMolecular 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.

SPHINX31 acts as a SRPK1 inhibitor targeting the ATR/DNA‐PKcs/CHK1 replicative checkpoint to inhibit cell growth in non‐small cell lung cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The kinase SRPK1 directly interacts with the protein TOPBP1 and regulates the pre‐mRNA splicing of WIZ thereby contributing to the activation of the ATR/CHK1 replicative checkpoint in response to replicative stress. This allows cancer cells' genomic stability and survival.

Identification and characterisation of calcitonin receptor isoforms expressed in glioblastoma derived glioma stem and U‐87 MG cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Glioblastoma cells express calcitonin receptor variants (CT receptor isoforms) that may help them survive stress. Using qPCR, transcript‐specific long‐read nanopore sequencing, immunofluorescence co‐localisation and comparative sequence analysis, this study identifies a novel alternatively spliced CALCR transcript that encodes the CTb receptor isoform ...

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

open access: yes, 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

open access: yesCell 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.

IGF2 knockout reduces but does not abolish osteosarcoma growth in vitro and in vivo

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
To test whether endogenous IGF2 promotes osteosarcoma growth, IGF2 was knocked out in Saos2 cells via CRISPR‐Cas9. KO cells showed reduced proliferation in vitro, and knockout xenografts in mice reached only ~25% of wild‐type tumor volume. Insulin‐like growth factor 2 (IGF2) is implicated in osteosarcoma, but direct functional evidence of its role is ...

Evidence for a nuclear compartment of transcription and splicing located at chromosome domain boundaries [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The nuclear topography of splicing snRNPs, mRNA transcripts and chromosome domains in various mammalian cell types are described. The visualization of splicing snRNPs, defined by the Sm antigen, and coiled bodies, revealed distinctly different ...

MicroRNA miR-1002 Enhances NMNAT-Mediated Stress Response by Modulating Alternative Splicing

open access: yesiScience, 2019
Summary: Understanding endogenous regulation of stress resistance and homeostasis maintenance is critical to developing neuroprotective therapies. Nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase (NMNAT) is a conserved essential enzyme that confers ...

Signal-regulated Pre-mRNA occupancy by the general splicing factor U2AF. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Alternative splicing of transcripts in a signal-dependent manner has emerged as an important concept to ensure appropriate expression of splice variants under different conditions.
