Researchers at University of Tsukuba have decoded the nuclear genome of Amorphochlora amoebiformis, a unicellular marine alga ...

This important manuscript provides insights into the competition between Splicing Factor 1 (SF1) and Quaking (QKI) for binding at the ACUAA branch point sequence in a model intron, regulating exon ...

Introns, once thought to be useless RNA segments, help regulate protein production by degrading mRNA. Researchers found that introns become more stable under stress, hinting at a possible survival ...

Scientists have discovered that some tiny segments of RNA thought to be junk instead have a functional role in suppressing production of certain messenger RNAs and appear to help cells respond to ...

[Oct 15 05:17 PM]: Training Augustus using BUSCO gene models Error: In sequence AgBi.1_256224-258221: One CDS exon does not begin properly after the previous CDS exon.1397 >= 1395 ...

We are far from understanding all the rules that govern the process of RNA splicing and defining the sequence information that governs intron definition. In the September 25 Proceedings of the ...

Abstract: Analysis of DNA sequences requires conversion of a base sequence to a numerical sequence. The choice of the numerical mapping of a DNA sequence affects how well its biological properties can ...

Introns are perhaps one of our genome's biggest mysteries. They are DNA sequences that interrupt the sensible protein-coding information in your genes, and need to be 'spliced out.' Although you may ...

Although you may not appreciate them, or have even heard of them, throughout your body, countless microscopic machines called spliceosomes are hard at work. As you sit and read, they are faithfully ...

Eukaryotic genes are interrupted by introns that are removed from transcribed RNAs by splicing. Patterns of splicing complexity differ between species, but it is unclear how these differences arise.
