Analysis of colorectal cancers in British Bangladeshi identifies early onset, frequent mucinous histotype and a high prevalence of
Background Prevalence of colorectal cancer (CRC) in the British Bangladeshi population (BAN) is low compared to British Caucasians (CAU). Genetic background may influence mutations and disease features.

A novel LRAT mutation affecting splicing in a family with early onset retinitis pigmentosa
Background and purpose Retinitis pigmentosa is an important cause of severe visual dysfunction. This study reports a novel splicing mutation in the lecithin retinol acyltransferase (LRAT) gene associated with early onset retinitis pigmentosa and ...

Quantification of pre-mRNA escape rate and synergy in splicing [PDF]
Splicing reactions generally combine high speed with accuracy. However, some of the pre-mRNAs escape the nucleus with a retained intron. Intron retention can control gene expression and increase proteome diversity.

RBM5 is a male germ cell splicing factor and is required for spermatid differentiation and male fertility. [PDF]
Alternative splicing of precursor messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) is common in mammalian cells and enables the production of multiple gene products from a single gene, thus increasing transcriptome and proteome diversity.

Changes in intranuclear mobility of mature snRNPs provide a mechanism for splicing defects in spinal muscular atrophy [PDF]
This work was funded by the Wellcome Trust (grant ID WT078810MA)It is becoming increasingly clear that defects in RNA metabolism can lead to disease. Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), a leading genetic cause of infant mortality, results from insufficient ...
