An alternatively spliced exon links intermediate filaments to adhesions.
Anchorage of the contractile actomyosin apparatus to the plasma membrane at discrete sites in muscle and non-muscle cells enables the transmission and conversion of force into work, such as muscle contraction and membrane deformation to regulate cell and tissue shape. Assembly, stabilization and turnover of adhesion sites are complex processes that involve structural components, a variety of si...
متن کاملSyntrophin binds to an alternatively spliced exon of dystrophin
Dystrophin, the protein product of the Duchenne muscular dystrophy locus, is a protein of the membrane cytoskeleton that associates with a complex of integral and membrane-associated proteins. Of these, the 58-kD intracellular membrane-associated protein, syntrophin, was recently shown to consist of a family of three related but distinct genes. We expressed the cDNA of human beta 1-syntrophin a...
متن کاملAn alternatively spliced variant of KLK4 expressed in prostatic tissue.
P cancer is the third leading cause of malignancy-related deaths in North America. Despite the availability of such good markers as the two members of the kallikrein family, prostate specific antigen (PSA), and human glandular kallikrein 2 (hK2), the necessity to find additional markers still remains to differentiate aggressive from nonaggressive forms of this cancer. In the quest of further ch...
متن کاملAlternatively Spliced Human Genes by Exon Skipping - a database
UNLABELLED Alternative splicing of mRNA allows many gene products with different functions to be produced from a single coding sequence. Exon skipping is the most commonly known alternative splicing mechanism. A comprehensive database of alternative splicing by exon skipping is made available for the human genome data. 1,229 human genes are identified to exhibit alternative splicing by exon ski...
متن کاملThe exon trapping assay partly discriminates against alternatively spliced exons.
A cosmid containing eight exons of the gene coding for the microtubule-associated tau protein was subjected to the exon trapping assay. All the constitutive exons contained in the cosmid (4, 5, 7 and 9) were efficiently captured regardless of size. Of the four alternatively spliced exons, three (3, 4A and 8) were not isolated by the assay, but the behavior of exon 6 depended on the identity of ...
