For most of our 25,000 genes, the removal of introns by pre-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) splicing represents an essential step toward the production of functional messenger RNAs …
Abstract Information theory–based software tools have been useful in interpreting noncoding sequence variation within functional sequence elements such as splice sites. Individual …
Alternative splicing (AS) is the process of combining different parts of the pre-mRNA to produce diverse transcripts and eventually different protein products from a single gene. In …

Motivation: Alternative splicing is currently seen to explain the vast disparity between the number of predicted genes in the human genome and the highly diverse proteome. The …
Aberrant splicing is a major cause of genetic disorders but its direct detection in transcriptomes is limited to clinically accessible tissues such as skin or body fluids. While …

Intron removal during pre-mRNA splicing in higher eukaryotes requires the accurate identification of the two splice sites at the ends of the exons, or exon definition. The …
Alternative RNA splicing provides an important means to expand metazoan transcriptome diversity. Contrary to what was accepted previously, splicing is now thought to …
