"Alternative Splicing"

The GENCODE v7 catalog of human long noncoding RNAs: analysis of their gene structure, evolution, and expression.

The human genome contains many thousands of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs). While several studies have demonstrated compelling biological and disease roles for individual examples, analytical and experimental approaches to investigate these genes …

The origins, evolution, and functional potential of alternative splicing in vertebrates.

Alternative splicing (AS) has the potential to greatly expand the functional repertoire of mammalian transcriptomes. However, few variant transcripts have been characterized functionally, making it difficult to assess the contribution of AS to the …
