Structural basis of intron selection by U2 snRNP in the presence of covalent inhibitors
Nature Communications, 2021 Chemical modulation of intron selection has emerged as a route for cancer therapy. Here, structures of the U2 snRNP’s SF3B module and of prespliceosome- both in complexes with splicing modulators- provide insight into the mechanisms of intron recognition

A new view of RNA: the 1989 discovery by Sidney Altman and Thomas Cech [PDF]
The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2020 The 1989 Nobel Prize Laureates in Chemistry Sidney Altman and Thomas Robert Cech made one of the most important discoveries in molecular genetics. Independently of each other, they demonstrated new experimental evidence that RNA molecules can not only ...

Minigene Splicing Assays Identify 12 Spliceogenic Variants of BRCA2 Exons 14 and 15
Frontiers in Genetics, 2019 A relevant fraction of BRCA2 variants is associated with splicing alterations and with an increased risk of hereditary breast and ovarian cancer (HBOC). In this work, we have carried out a thorough study of variants from BRCA2 exons 14 and 15 reported at

Numerical prediction and experimental analysis of ends-together yarn splicing [PDF]
, 2016 Pneumatic yarn splicing is a technical process for joining two yarn ends together. The process involves injecting compressed air into a splicing chamber. The inlet pressure and chamber slope determine the main parameters affecting this process.

CiLiQuant: Quantification of RNA Junction Reads Based on Their Circular or Linear Transcript Origin
Frontiers in Bioinformatics, 2022 Distinguishing circular RNA reads from reads derived from the linear host transcript is a challenging task because of sequence overlap. We developed a computational approach, CiLiQuant, that determines the relative circular and linear abundance of ...
