This article was review by Thomas Cooper, MD from Baylor College of Medicine. Stay up to date on the latest science with Brush Up Summaries. Despite its significance, alternative splicing’s global ...

Computational biologists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have uncovered how RNA splicing – a crucial process for isoform expression and protein diversity - is regulated across ...

Announcing a new article publication for Cardiovascular Innovations and Applications journal. Alternative splicing (AS), a critical process for gene expression regulation, allows a single precursor ...

Scientists at Università Cattolica reported on the discovery of a genetic mechanism that pancreatic cancer cells employ to evade treatment, and which the investigators say could pave the way to the ...

The immune system's gradual decline with age, known as immune aging, increases susceptibility to infections, autoimmune diseases, and cancers. T cells, crucial for adaptive immunity, undergo ...

In an important new study, Chinese researchers have discovered the previously unrecognized role of alternative splicing of the DOC2A gene in schizophrenia. The research was conducted by scientists led ...

Alternative splicing is a genetic process where different segments of genes are removed, and the remaining pieces are joined together during transcription to messenger RNA (mRNA). This mechanism ...

Biologists have discovered a new type of RNA-splicing regulation that helps to determine which protein-coding exons will be included in messenger RNA transcripts. RNA splicing is a cellular process ...

Researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) have created the first blueprint of the human spliceosome, the complex molecular machine that edits genetic messages transcribed from DNA, ...
