eukaryotes. Variability in splicing patterns is a major source of protein diversity from the …

The RNA polymerase II CTD coordinates transcription and RNA processing

JP Hsin, JL Manley - Genes & development, 2012 - genesdev.cshlp.org

SR proteins function in coupling RNAP II transcription to pre-mRNA splicing

R Das, J Yu, Z Zhang, MP Gygi, AR Krainer, SP Gygi… - Molecular cell, 2007 - cell.com

Intronic microrna (mirna)

SL Lin, JD Miller, SY Ying - BioMed Research International, 2006 - Wiley Online Library
Nearly 97% of the human genome is composed of noncoding DNA, which varies from one

The mRNA assembly line: transcription and processing machines in the same factory

D Bentley - Current opinion in cell biology, 2002 - Elsevier
Processing of RNA precursors to their mature form often occurs co-transcriptionally.
Consequently, the ternary complex of DNA template, RNA polymerase and nascent RNA …

FUS functions in coupling transcription to splicing by mediating an interaction between RNAP II and U1 snRNP

Y Yu, R Reed - Proceedings of the National Academy of …, 2015 - National Acad Sciences
Pre-mRNA splicing is coupled to transcription by RNA polymerase II (RNAP II). We

Cotranscriptional exon skipping in the genotoxic stress response

M Dutertre, G Sanchez, MC De Cian, J Barbier… - Nature structural & …, 2010 - nature.com
Pre-mRNA splicing is functionally coupled to transcription, and genotoxic stresses can
enhance alternative exon inclusion by affecting elongating RNA polymerase II. We report …
