Accurate Analysis of Crosstalk Between LP$_{11}$ Quasi-Degenerate Modes Due to Offset Connection Using True Eigenmodes

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2018
Linearly polarized (LP) modes in few-mode fibers are not true eigenmodes but approximated modes constituting of linear combinations of true eigenmodes.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

The Expanding Landscape of Alternative Splicing Variation in Human Populations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Alternative splicing is a tightly regulated biological process by which the number of gene products for any given gene can be greatly expanded. Genomic variants in splicing regulatory sequences can disrupt splicing and cause disease.

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Altered CELF4 splicing factor enhances pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors aggressiveness influencing mTOR and everolimus response

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids
Pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (PanNETs) comprise a heterogeneous group of tumors with growing incidence. Recent molecular analyses provided a precise picture of their genomic and epigenomic landscape. Splicing dysregulation is increasingly regarded as

A novel synonymous KMT2B variant in a patient with dystonia causes aberrant splicing

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2022
Background Heterozygous KMT2B variants are a common cause of dystonia. A novel synonymous KMT2B variant, c.5073C>T (p.Gly1691=) was identified in an individual with childhood‐onset progressive dystonia.

Evolution of NCoR-1 and NCoR-2 corepressor alternative mRNA splicing in placental mammals. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
ObjectiveThe NCoR-1 and NCoR-2 corepressors are products of an early gene duplication near the beginning of vertebrate evolution and play both overlapping and divergent roles in development and physiology.

evolution, structure and function of metazoan splicing factor PRPF39 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
In the yeast U1 snRNP the Prp39/Prp42 heterodimer is essential for early steps of spliceosome assembly. In metazoans no Prp42 ortholog exists, raising the question how the heterodimer is functionally substituted.
