Spliced-Leader trans-Splicing in Freshwater Planarians [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2005
trans-Splicing, in which a spliced-leader (SL) RNA is appended to the most 5' exon of independently transcribed pre-mRNAs, has been described in a wide range of eukaryotes, from protozoans to chordates. Here we describe trans-splicing in the freshwater planarian Schmidtea mediterranea, a free-living member of the phylum Platyhelminthes.

iMapSplice: Alleviating reference bias through personalized RNA-seq alignment. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Genomic variants in both coding and non-coding sequences can have functionally important and sometimes deleterious effects on exon splicing of gene transcripts.

CD44 splice isoform switching determines breast cancer stem cell state

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2019
Zhang et al. show that manipulating the splicing regulator ESRP1 to shift alternative splicing from splice isoform CD44v to CD44s leads to an induction of cancer stem cell properties.

Introme accurately predicts the impact of coding and noncoding variants on gene splicing, with clinical applications

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2023
Predicting the impact of coding and noncoding variants on splicing is challenging, particularly in non-canonical splice sites, leading to missed diagnoses in patients.

Deep-intronic ABCA4 variants explain missing heritability in Stargardt disease and allow correction of splice defects by antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesGenetics in Medicine, 2019
Using exome sequencing, the underlying variants in many persons with autosomal recessive diseases remain undetected. We explored autosomal recessive Stargardt disease (STGD1) as a model to identify the missing heritability.

Flexural performance of reinforced HS-HVFA-SCC beam with spliced plain bar

open access: yesSN Applied Sciences, 2022
This research presents the use of flexural performance criteria for determining the required spliced length of tensile plain bar embedded in unconfined high strength-high volume fly ash-self compacting concrete (HS-HVFA-SCC) beam.

Splice-switching antisense oligonucleotides as therapeutic drugs

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2016
Splice-switching oligonucleotides (SSOs) are short, synthetic, antisense, modified nucleic acids that base-pair with a pre-mRNA and disrupt the normal splicing repertoire of the transcript by blocking the RNA–RNA base-pairing or protein–RNA binding ...

Splicing matroids

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Combinatorics, 2011
We introduce and study a natural variant of matroid amalgams. For matroids M(A) and N(B) such that M/(A-B)=N(B-A), we define a splice of M and N to be a matroid L on the union of A and B with L(B-A)=M and L/(A-B)=N. We show that splices exist for each such pair of matroids M and N; furthermore, there is a freest splice of M and N, which we call the ...

An experimental investigation on contact compression lap splice in circular columns

open access: yesHBRC Journal, 2016
Due to the rapid development in design of multistory buildings and, because of the variation in stories height with the fixed length of the steel reinforcing bars, steel is usually wasted particularly in columns. Hence, compression lap splice may be used

Inefficient splicing of long non-coding RNAs is associated with higher transcript complexity in human and mouse

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2023
Recent reports show that long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have inefficient splicing and fewer alternative splice variants than mRNAs. Here, we have explored the efficiency of lncRNAs and mRNAs in producing various splice variants, given the number of exons
