hnRNP A1 in RNA metabolism regulation and as a potential therapeutic target
Abnormal RNA metabolism, regulated by various RNA binding proteins, can have functional consequences for multiple diseases. Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (hnRNP A1) is an important RNA binding protein, that regulates various RNA metabolic ...

Splicing factor SRSF1 negatively regulates alternative splicing of MDM2 under damage [PDF]
Genotoxic stress induces alternative splicing of the oncogene MDM2 generating MDM2-ALT1, an isoform attributed with tumorigenic properties. However, the mechanisms underlying this event remain unclear. Here we explore MDM2 splicing regulation by utilizing a novel minigene that mimics endogenous MDM2 splicing in response to UV and cisplatinum-induced ...

Background Altered expression of mRNA splicing factors occurs with ageing in vivo and is thought to be an ageing mechanism. The accumulation of senescent cells also occurs in vivo with advancing age and causes much degenerative age-related pathology ...

Splicing factor SRSF1 promotes gliomagenesis via oncogenic splice-switching of MYO1B [PDF]
Abnormal alternative splicing (AS) caused by alterations to splicing factors contributes to tumor progression. Serine/arginine splicing factor 1 (SRSF1) has emerged as a key oncodriver in numerous solid tumors, leaving its roles and mechanisms largely obscure in glioma.

Reversible phosphorylation differentially affects nuclear and cytoplasmic functions of splicing factor 2/alternative splicing factor [PDF]
The Ser/Arg-rich (SR) proteins constitute a family of highly conserved nuclear phosphoproteins that are involved in many steps of mRNA metabolism. Previously, we demonstrated that shuttling SR proteins can associate with translating ribosomes and enhance translation of reporter mRNAs both in vivo

PHD finger protein 5A promoted lung adenocarcinoma progression via alternative splicing
Alternative splicing (AS) and the regulation of AS by splicing factors play critical roles in cancer. Plant homeodomain (PHD)–finger domain protein PHF5A, a critical splicing factor involved in AS, has been demonstrated to play an oncogenic role in ...

Systematic Profiling of Alternative Splicing Events in Ovarian Cancer
Alternative splicing (AS) is significantly related to the development of tumor and the clinical outcome of patients. In this study, our aim was to systematically analyze the survival-related AS signal in ovarian serous cystadenocarcinoma (OV) and ...

Summary: In the eukaryotic cell, spliceosomes assemble onto pre-mRNA cotranscriptionally. Spliceosome assembly takes place in the context of the chromatin environment, suggesting that the state of the chromatin may affect splicing.
