Johns Hopkins researchers have developed a powerful new AI tool called Splam that can identify where splicing occurs in genes—an advance that could help scientists analyze genetic data with greater ...
Researchers have developed a near-single-cell resolution spatial transcriptomic approach to study developmentally regulated RNA processes.
A wide spectrum of cancer-associated genetic alterations, including those that result in changes to the splicing of pre–messenger RNA (mRNA), can lead to the presentation of aberrant peptides as ...
Type-II diabetes is a chronic disease caused by insulin resistance due to pancreatic β-cell dysfunction. Mutations in a single gene, HNF1A, which codes for the transcription factor hepatocyte nuclear ...
What are the mechanisms of alternative splicing? Prior to RNA splicing, RNA polymerase II produces pre-mRNA transcripts by transcribing gene sequences into a collection of non-coding introns and ...
One idea has been that speckles are splicing factories. The splicing reaction would happen inside the speckle, and then the spliced product would leave. “What people found is that’s not what happens,” ...
