Biased exon/intron distribution of cryptic and de novo 3′ splice sites
We compiled sequences of previously published aberrant 3' splice sites (3'ss) that were generated by mutations in human disease genes. Cryptic 3'ss, defined here as those resulting from a mutation of the 3'YAG consensus, were more frequent in exons than in introns. They clustered in approximately 20 nt region adjacent to authentic 3'ss, suggesting that their under-representation in introns is d...
متن کاملRNA helicase p68 (DDX5) regulates tau exon 10 splicing by modulating a stem-loop structure at the 5' splice site.
Regulation of tau exon 10 splicing plays an important role in tauopathy. One of the cis elements regulating tau alternative splicing is a stem-loop structure at the 5' splice site of tau exon 10. The RNA helicase(s) modulating this stem-loop structure was unknown. We searched for splicing regulators interacting with this stem-loop region using an RNA affinity pulldown-coupled mass spectrometry ...
متن کاملExon 10 skipping caused by intron 10 splice donor site mutation in cholesteryl ester transfer protein gene results in abnormal downstream splice site selection.
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) deficiency is the most common cause of hyperalphalipoproteinemia in Japan. However, the genetic basis of this disorder has not been fully characterized. We have studied a 49-year-old Japanese male presenting with total cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, and apolipoprotein A-I levels of 300, 236, and 233 mg/dl, respectively, and total absence of CETP activity...
متن کاملEfficient internal exon recognition depends on near equal contributions from the 3′ and 5′ splice sites
Pre-mRNA splicing is carried out by the spliceosome, which identifies exons and removes intervening introns. In vertebrates, most splice sites are initially recognized by the spliceosome across the exon, because most exons are small and surrounded by large introns. This gene architecture predicts that efficient exon recognition depends largely on the strength of the flanking 3' and 5' splice si...
متن کاملU5 snRNA interacts with exon sequences at 5' and 3' splice sites.
U5 snRNA is an essential pre-mRNA splicing factor whose function remains enigmatic. Specific mutations in a conserved single-stranded loop sequence in yeast U5 snRNA can activate cleavage of G1----A mutant pre-mRNAs at aberrant 5' splice sites and facilitate processing of dead-end lariat intermediates to mRNA. Activation of aberrant 5' cleavage sites involves base pairing between U5 snRNA and n...
