The nexus of long noncoding RNAs, splicing factors, alternative splicing and their modulations [PDF]
RNA BiologyThe process of alternative splicing (AS) is widely deregulated in a variety of cancers. Splicing is dependent upon splicing factors. Recently, several long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to regulate AS by directly/indirectly interacting with ...

Differential recruitment of pre-mRNA splicing factors to alternatively spliced transcripts in vivo. [PDF]
PLoS Biology, 2005 Alternative splicing in mammalian cells has been suggested to be largely controlled by combinatorial binding of basal splicing factors to pre-mRNA templates.

Plants, 2023 We investigated the transcriptomic changes in the shoot apices during floral transition in Arabidopsis mutants of two closely related splicing factors: AtU2AF65a (atu2af65a) and AtU2AF65b (atu2af65b).

Life, 2023 Pre-mRNA splicing is a process used by eukaryotic cells to generate messenger RNAs that can be translated into proteins. During splicing, the non-coding regions of the RNAs (introns) are removed from pre-mRNAs and the coding regions (exons) are joined ...

Age-Related Alternative Splicing: Driver or Passenger in the Aging Process?
Cells, 2023 Alternative splicing changes are closely linked to aging, though it remains unclear if they are drivers or effects. As organisms age, splicing patterns change, varying gene isoform levels and functions.

An overview of RNA splicing and functioning of splicing factors in land plant chloroplasts
RNA Biology, 2022 RNA splicing refers to a process by which introns of a pre-mRNA are excised and the exons at both ends are joined together. Chloroplast introns are inherently self-splicing ribozymes, but over time, they have lost self-splicing ability due to the ...

Regulation of RNA Splicing: Aberrant Splicing Regulation and Therapeutic Targets in Cancer
Cells, 2021 RNA splicing is a critical step in the maturation of precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) by removing introns and exons. The combination of inclusion and exclusion of introns and exons in pre-mRNA can generate vast diversity in mature mRNA from a limited number of ...
