Dysregulation of RNA Splicing in Tauopathies [PDF]
Summary: Pathological aggregation of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) is associated with dysregulation of RNA splicing in PS19 P301S tau transgenic mice and in Alzheimer’s disease brain tissues. The dysregulated splicing particularly affects genes involved in

RNA helicases in splicing [PDF]
In eukaryotic cells, introns are spliced from pre-mRNAs by the spliceosome. Both the composition and the structure of the spliceosome are highly dynamic, and eight DExD/H RNA helicases play essential roles in controlling conformational rearrangements. There is evidence that the various helicases are functionally and physically connected with each other

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 ...

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that is often modeled in Fmr1 knockout mice where the RNA-binding protein FMRP is absent. Here, we show that in Fmr1-deficient mice, RNA mis-splicing occurs in several brain regions and peripheral

A mechanism for RNA splicing. [PDF]
The most abundant of the stable small nuclear RNAs of eukaryotic cells, U-1 small nuclear RNA, is exactly complementary to the consensus sequences at RNA splice sites. We propose that this RNA is the recognition component of the nuclear RNA splicing enzyme and forms base pairs with both ends of an intron so as to align them for cutting and splicing.

Apparent non-canonical trans-splicing is generated by reverse transcriptase in vitro [PDF]
Trans-splicing, the in vivo joining of two RNA molecules, is well characterized in several groups of simple organisms but was long thought absent from fungi, plants and mammals.

The incredible complexity of RNA splicing [PDF]
Alternative splice isoforms are common and important and have been shown to impact many human diseases. A new study by Nellore et al. offers a comprehensive study of splice junctions in humans by re-analyzing over 21,500 public human RNA sequencing datasets.

Aberrant splicing of U12-type introns is the hallmark of ZRSR2 mutant myelodysplastic syndrome. [PDF]
Somatic mutations in the spliceosome gene ZRSR2-located on the X chromosome-are associated with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). ZRSR2 is involved in the recognition of 3'-splice site during the early stages of spliceosome assembly; however, its precise ...

Cis- and trans-regulations of pre-mRNA splicing by RNA editing enzymes influence cancer development
RNA editing and RNA splicing are involved in tumorigenesis. Here the authors report crosstalk between RNA editing and splicing by identifying ADAR1/2-dependent splicing events in esophageal squamous carcinoma cells.
