While humans can escape the heat by seeking shade or shedding layers, plants remain rooted in place. So how do they survive ...

Alternative Splicing Goes Mainstream. In eukaryotic genetics, the one-gene/one-protein concept has, for the most part, breathed its last. Researchers have rallied behind mechanisms such as alternative ...

Ze Wu, Jiahui Liang, Chengpeng Wang, Liping Ding, Xin Zhao, Xing Cao, Sujuan Xu, Nianjun Teng, Mingfang Yi, Alternative Splicing Provides a Mechanism to Regulate LlHSFA3 Function in Response to Heat ...

The study investigates the detailed mechanisms of alternative splicing in plant secondary metabolism, focusing on its effects on terpenoids, phenolic compounds, and nitrogen-containing metabolites.

A research team led by Tim Nilsen, Ph.D., a professor of medicine and biochemistry at Case Western Reserve University, has discovered an unexpected mechanism governing alternative splicing. The ...

Alternative splicing in human genes is widely viewed as a mechanism for enhancing proteomic diversity, the authors explained. During alternative splicing, different segments of genes are removed ...

Their work also builds a basis for understanding alternative polyadenylation--a much ignored cousin of alternative splicing that helps explain how a 30,000-gene genome might produce more than 120,000 ...

The results of this work reveal how an alternative splicing mechanism regulates an essential factor for neuronal identity. The study, published in Genes & Development, identifies UNC-75/CELF as ...

This work sheds light on how neuronal identity is established and maintained through an alternative splicing mechanism. Splicing is an essential process in gene expression, through which non ...

Alternative splicing, a clever way a cell generates many different variations of messenger RNAs - single-stranded RNAs involved in protein synthesis - and proteins from the same stretch of DNA ...
