Systematic Analysis of Splice-Site-Creating Mutations in Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
For the past decade, cancer genomic studies have focused on mutations leading to splice-site disruption, overlooking those having splice-creating potential. Here, we applied a bioinformatic tool, MiSplice, for the large-scale discovery of splice-site-creating mutations (SCMs) across 8,656 TCGA tumors.

A mutation hotspot at the p14ARF splice site [PDF]

open access: yesOncogene, 2005
Germline mutations of CDKN2A that affect the p16INK4a transcript have been identified in numerous melanoma pedigrees worldwide. In the UK, over 50% of pedigrees with three or more cases of melanoma have been found to carry mutations of CDKN2A. Mutations that affect p14ARF exon 1beta exclusively are very rare.

A 5' splice site mutation in fucosidosis. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Genetics, 1993
Fucosidosis is a rare, autosomal recessive, lysosomal storage disease, resulting from a deficiency of the enzyme alpha-fucosidase (EC 3.2.1.51). It is characterised clinically by progressive mental and motor deterioration, growth retardation, coarse facies, and often recurrent infections, but the course of the disease is variable.

A Second Leaky Splice-Site Mutation in the Spastin Gene [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Human Genetics, 2001
To the Editor: Mutations in the gene encoding spastin, an ATPase of unknown function, cause the most common form of autosomal dominant hereditary spastic paraplegia (SPG4 [MIM 182601]; Hazan et al. 1999), a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive spasticity of the lower limbs.

Identification of a novel splice‐site mutation in the CYP1A2 gene [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2003
Aims  To identify the molecular basis for a low CYP1A2 metabolic status, as determined by a caffeine phenotyping test, in a 71‐year‐old, nonsmoking, Caucasian woman who presented with very high clozapine concentrations despite being administered a standard dose of the drug.Methods  The nucleotide sequence of the 7 exons, exon‐intron boundaries and 5 ...

Splice Site Mutations in the ATP7A Gene

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
Menkes disease (MD) is caused by mutations in the ATP7A gene. We describe 33 novel splice site mutations detected in patients with MD or the milder phenotypic form, Occipital Horn Syndrome. We review these 33 mutations together with 28 previously published splice site mutations.

A mutational analysis of U12-dependent splice site dinucleotides [PDF]

open access: yesRNA, 2005
Introns spliced by the U12-dependent minor spliceosome are divided into two classes based on their splice site dinucleotides. The /AU-AC/ class accounts for about one-third of U12-dependent introns in humans, while the /GU-AG/ class accounts for the other two-thirds.

Information analysis of human splice site mutations

open access: yesHuman Mutation, 1998
Splice site nucleotide substitutions can be analyzed by comparing the individual information contents (Ri, bits) of the normal and variant splice junction sequences [Rogan and Schneider, 1995]. In the present study, we related splicing abnormalities to changes in Ri values of 111 previously reported splice site substitutions in 41 different genes ...
