HIV-1 spliced RNAs display transcription start site bias [PDF]

open access: yesRNA, 2020
Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) transcripts have three fates: to serve as genomic RNAs, unspliced mRNAs, or spliced subgenomic mRNAs. Recent structural studies have shown that sequences near the 5′ end of HIV-1 RNA can adopt at least two alternate three-dimensional conformations, and that these structures dictate genome versus unspliced ...

Assessing the impacts of various factors on circular RNA reliability

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2023
This study systematically assesses the impacts of numerous factors related to circRNA identification, conservation, biogenesis, and function on circRNA reliability, providing a useful guideline and an important resource for selecting high-confidence ...

Probing of the spliceosome with site-specifically derivatized 5′ splice site RNA oligonucleotides

open access: yesRNA, 1998
We have developed a site-specific chemical modification technique to incorporate a photoreactive azidophenacyl (APA) group at designated internal positions along the RNA phosphodiester backbone. Using this technique, we have analyzed interactions of the 5' splice site (5'SS) RNA within the spliceosome.

Developing ABEmax-NG with Precise Targeting and Expanded Editing Scope to Model Pathogenic Splice Site Mutations In Vivo

open access: yesiScience, 2019
Summary: RNA splicing is related to many human diseases; however, lack of efficient genetic approaches to modulate splicing has prevented us from dissecting their functions in human diseases.

Noisy splicing drives mRNA isoform diversity in human cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2010
While the majority of multiexonic human genes show some evidence of alternative splicing, it is unclear what fraction of observed splice forms is functionally relevant.

Mutations designed to modify the NS gene mRNA secondary structure affect influenza A pathogenicity in vivo

open access: yesMicrobiology Independent Research Journal, 2021
The influenza A virus genome consists of eight segments of negative-sense RNA that encode up to 18 proteins. During the process of viral replication, positive-sense (+)RNA (cRNA) or messenger RNA (mRNA) is synthesized.

Genome-wide analyses supported by RNA-Seq reveal non-canonical splice sites in plant genomes

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2018
Background Most eukaryotic genes comprise exons and introns thus requiring the precise removal of introns from pre-mRNAs to enable protein biosynthesis. U2 and U12 spliceosomes catalyze this step by recognizing motifs on the transcript in order to remove

Consideration of non-canonical splice sites improves gene prediction on the Arabidopsis thaliana Niederzenz-1 genome sequence

open access: yesBMC Research Notes, 2017
Objective The Arabidopsis thaliana Niederzenz-1 genome sequence was recently published with an ab initio gene prediction. In depth analysis of the predicted gene set revealed some errors involving genes with non-canonical splice sites in their introns ...

A genetic screen in C. elegans reveals roles for KIN17 and PRCC in maintaining 5' splice site identity.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2022
Pre-mRNA splicing is an essential step of eukaryotic gene expression carried out by a series of dynamic macromolecular protein/RNA complexes, known collectively and individually as the spliceosome.

An extended catalogue of tandem alternative splice sites in human tissue transcriptomes.

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2021
Tandem alternative splice sites (TASS) is a special class of alternative splicing events that are characterized by a close tandem arrangement of splice sites. Most TASS lack functional characterization and are believed to arise from splicing noise. Based
