“This suggests that longer-lived species may have evolved molecular programs that optimize splicing for longevity, allowing ...

A collaborative study by scientists at the University of California, Riverside, and University of Southern California reports ...

A new study shows that RNA splicing, not just gene expression, holds powerful clues to why some mammals live far longer than ...

When a gene is expressed, its DNA sequence is transcribed into a molecule known as RNA. Then the cell processes and edits ...

Individual genes express multiple mRNAs by pre-mRNA alternative splicing, alternative polyadenylation or use of alternative promoters (first exons). As a result, individual genes express multiple ...

Alternative splicing promises to help resolve the question of how 25,000 genes could possibly be enough to encode instructions for a huge range of specialized human cells from osteoplast to neuron.

In the July 1st issue of G&D, Dr. Douglas Black (UCLA) and colleagues detail how alternative splicing is reprogrammed during neuronal development. Alternative splicing refers to the processing of an ...

Viral-infected cell lines are a commonly used experimental system to investigate host mechanisms and restriction factors, which inhibit viral replication and infection. In the present study, ...

Abstract Alternative splicing (AS) is a crucial regulatory mechanism in eukaryotes, which acts by greatly increasing transcriptome diversity. The extent and complexity of AS has been revealed in model ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract NAGNAG alternative splicing is one type of alternative splicing in mammals and plants. There are two opposite arguments regarding the ...
