Long-read RNA-seq demarcates cis- and trans-directed alternative RNA splicing [PDF]
Genetic regulation of alternative splicing constitutes an important link between genetic variation and disease. Nonetheless, RNA splicing is regulated by both cis-acting elements and trans-acting splicing factors.

RNA-Targeting Splicing Modifiers: Drug Development and Screening Assays
RNA splicing is an essential step in producing mature messenger RNA (mRNA) and other RNA species. Harnessing RNA splicing modifiers as a new pharmacological modality is promising for the treatment of diseases caused by aberrant splicing.

Aberrant splicing in human cancer: An RNA structural code point of view
Alternative splicing represents an essential process that occurs widely in eukaryotes. In humans, most genes undergo alternative splicing to ensure transcriptome and proteome diversity reflecting their functional complexity.

Regulation of RNA Splicing: Aberrant Splicing Regulation and Therapeutic Targets in Cancer
RNA splicing is a critical step in the maturation of precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) by removing introns and exons. The combination of inclusion and exclusion of introns and exons in pre-mRNA can generate vast diversity in mature mRNA from a limited number of ...

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein forms nuclear condensates and regulates alternative splicing
Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome is caused by mutations in WASP, but the underlying mechanisms remain to be explored. Here the authors reveal that WASP deficiency results in aberrant RNA splicing, and that WASP regulates the transcription of splicing factor ...
