Linking splicing to Pol II transcription stabilizes pre-mRNAs and influences splicing patterns.
RNA processing is carried out in close proximity to the site of transcription, suggesting a regulatory link between transcription and pre-mRNA splicing. Using an in vitro transcription/splicing assay, we demonstrate that an association of RNA polymerase ...

Activity-regulated RNA editing in select neuronal subfields in hippocampus [PDF]
RNA editing by adensosine deaminases is a widespread mechanism to alter genetic information in metazoa. In addition to modifications in non-coding regions, editing contributes to diversification of protein function, in analogy to alternative splicing ...

Akt-ivation of RNA Splicing [PDF]
Cells must tightly control alternative splicing of RNA to maintain homeostasis; in this issue of Molecular Cell, Sanidas et al. (2014) provide new insights into the regulation of RNA splicing by Akt isoforms through phosphorylation of histone modification machinery.

A single N‐terminal phosphomimic disrupts TDP‐43 polymerization, phase separation, and RNA splicing
TDP‐43 is an RNA‐binding protein active in splicing that concentrates into membraneless ribonucleoprotein granules and forms aggregates in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and Alzheimer's disease. Although best known for its predominantly disordered C‐

MicroRNA-222 regulates muscle alternative splicing through Rbm24 during differentiation of skeletal muscle cells [PDF]
A number of microRNAs have been shown to regulate skeletal muscle development and differentiation. MicroRNA-222 is downregulated during myogenic differentiation and its overexpression leads to alteration of muscle differentiation process and specialized ...
