Role of Aberrant Alternative Splicing in Cancer
Alternative splicing can alter genome sequence and as a consequence, many genes change to oncogenes. This event can also affect protein function and diversity. The growing number of study elucidate the pathological influence of impaired alternative splicing events on numerous disease including cancer. Here, we would like to highlight the significant role of alternative splicing in cancer biolog...
متن کاملConnections between Alternative Transcription and Alternative Splicing in Mammals
The majority of mammalian genes produce multiple transcripts resulting from alternative splicing (AS) and/or alternative transcription initiation (ATI) and alternative transcription termination (ATT). Comparative analysis of the number of alternative nucleotides, isoforms, and introns per locus in genes with different types of alternative events suggests that ATI and ATT contribute to the diver...
متن کاملBody temperature cycles
Body temperature in mammals is homeostatically regulated around a set point, which renders it independent of large variations in environmental temperature. Hypothalamic regions, including the preoptic area, act as thermoregulatory centers that receive temperature inputs from the core body through hypothalamic receptors and from the environment through skin receptors. Thermogenic and heatdissipa...
متن کاملBody temperature predicts maximum microsatellite length in mammals.
A long-standing mystery in genome evolution is why short tandem repeats vary so much in length and frequency. Here, we test the hypothesis that body temperature acts to influence the rate and nature of slippage-based mutations. Using the data from both 28 species where genome sequencing is advanced and 76 species from which marker loci have been published, we show that in mammals, maximum repea...
متن کاملCool running: locomotor performance at low body temperature in mammals.
Mammalian torpor saves enormous amounts of energy, but a widely assumed cost of torpor is immobility and therefore vulnerability to predators. Contrary to this assumption, some small marsupial mammals in the wild move while torpid at low body temperatures to basking sites, thereby minimizing energy expenditure during arousal. Hence, we quantified how mammalian locomotor performance is affected ...
