Splice-switching antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) could be used to treat a subset of individuals with genetic diseases, but the systematic identification of such individuals …
Predicting the effects of genetic variants on splicing is highly relevant for human genetics. We describe the framework MMSplice (modular modeling of splicing) with which we built the …

Pre-messenger RNA splicing is initiated with the recognition of a single-nucleotide intronic branchpoint (BP) within a BP motif by spliceosome elements. Forty-eight rare variants in 43 …
Since the discovery of RNA splicing and its role in gene expression, researchers have sought a set of rules, an algorithm or a computational model that could predict the splice …
Progress in dementia research has been limited, with substantial gaps in our knowledge of targets for prevention, mechanisms for disease progression, and disease-modifying …
The relationship between noncoding DNA sequence and gene expression is not well- understood. Massively parallel reporter assays (MPRAs), which quantify the regulatory …
