Stressful Splicing [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2007
A novel study in a recent issue of Molecular Cell (Shi and Manley, 2007) provides insight into a complex signaling pathway that controls the phosphorylation status of an SR-related protein that functions as a splicing repressor following heat shock-dependent dephosphorylation.

Dysregulation and Therapeutic Targeting of RNA Splicing Variants in Cancer [PDF]

open access: yesمجلة جامعة النجاح للأبحاث العلوم الطبيعية
mRNA splicing constitutes a crucial biological phenomenon characterized by the excision of introns from pre-mRNA, followed by the synthesis of mature mRNA through the concatenation of the remaining exons.

Benchmarking deep learning splice prediction tools using functional splice assays

open access: yesHuman Mutation, 2020
Hereditary disorders are frequently caused by genetic variants that affect pre‐messenger RNA splicing. Though genetic variants in the canonical splice motifs are almost always disrupting splicing, the pathogenicity of variants in the noncanonical splice ...

Animal, Fungi, and Plant Genome Sequences Harbor Different Non-Canonical Splice Sites

open access: yesCells, 2020
Most protein-encoding genes in eukaryotes contain introns, which are interwoven with exons. Introns need to be removed from initial transcripts in order to generate the final messenger RNA (mRNA), which can be translated into an amino acid sequence ...

Molecular cloning, expression, and functional features of IGF1 splice variants in sheep

open access: yesEndocrine Connections, 2021
Insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1), also known as somatomedin C, is essential for the regulation of animal growth and development. In many species, the IGF1 gene can be alternatively spliced into multiple transcripts, encoding different pre-pro-IGF1 ...

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

GC content around splice sites affects splicing through pre-mRNA secondary structures

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2011
Background Alternative splicing increases protein diversity by generating multiple transcript isoforms from a single gene through different combinations of exons or through different selections of splice sites.

dbNSFP v3.0: A One‐Stop Database of Functional Predictions and Annotations for Human Nonsynonymous and Splice‐Site SNVs

open access: yesHuman Mutation, 2016
The purpose of the dbNSFP is to provide a one‐stop resource for functional predictions and annotations for human nonsynonymous single‐nucleotide variants (nsSNVs) and splice‐site variants (ssSNVs), and to facilitate the steps of filtering and ...

Spliced leader RNA trans-splicing in dinoflagellates [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
Through the analysis of hundreds of full-length cDNAs from fifteen species representing all major orders of dinoflagellates, we demonstrate that nuclear-encoded mRNAs in all species, from ancestral to derived lineages, are trans-spliced with the addition of the 22-nt conserved spliced leader (SL), DCCGUAGCCAUUUUGGCUCAAG (D = U, A, or G), to the 5′ end.
