Alternative Splicing and Extensive RNA Editing of Human TPH2 Transcripts
Brain serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmission plays a key role in the regulation of mood and has been implicated in a variety of neuropsychiatric conditions. Tryptophan hydroxylase (TPH) is the rate-limiting enzyme in the biosynthesis of 5-HT. Recently, we discovered a second TPH isoform (TPH2) in vertebrates, including man, which is predominantly expressed in brain, while the previously known TPH i...
متن کاملRole 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 کاملAlternative splicing of LYT1 transcripts in Trypanosoma cruzi.
As a result of alternative trans splicing, three distinct LYT1 mRNAs are produced in Trypanosoma cruzi, two encoding the full-length LYT1 protein and the third encoding a truncated LYT1 protein lacking a possible signal sequence. Analysis of the three mRNAs in different developmental forms of the parasite revealed that the alternative processing events were regulated differently during the para...
متن کاملTissue-specific alternative splicing of BK channel transcripts in Drosophila.
BK-type calcium-activated potassium channels are large conductance channels that respond to changes in intracellular calcium and membrane potential. These channels are used in a wide variety of cell types and have recently been linked to drug sensitivity and tolerance. In both Drosophila and mammals, BK channels are encoded by the slowpoke gene. The Drosophila slowpoke gene includes 14 alternat...
متن کاملExtensive Search for Discriminative Features of Alternative Splicing
Alternative pre-mRNA splicing events can be classified into various types, including cassette, mutually exclusive, alternative 3' splice site, alternative 5' splice site, retained intron. The detection of features of a particular type of alternative splicing events is an important and challenging problem in understanding the mechanism of alternative splicing. In this paper, we consider the prob...
