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 کاملAlternative Splicing Regulates Targeting of Malate Dehydrogenase in Yarrowia lipolytica
Alternative pre-mRNA splicing is a major mechanism contributing to the proteome complexity of most eukaryotes, especially mammals. In less complex organisms, such as yeasts, the numbers of genes that contain introns are low and cases of alternative splicing (AS) with functional implications are rare. We report the first case of AS with functional consequences in the yeast Yarrowia lipolytica. T...
متن کاملTherapeutic potential of antisense oligonucleotides as modulators of alternative splicing.
An estimated 60% of all human genes undergo alternative splicing, a highly regulated process that produces splice variants with different functions. Such variants have been linked to a variety of cancers, and genetic diseases such as thalassemia and cystic fibrosis. This Perspective describes a promising approach to RNA repair based on the use of antisense oligonucleotides to modulate alternati...
متن کاملTherapeutic Applications of Targeted Alternative Splicing to Cancer Treatment
A growing body of studies has documented the pathological influence of impaired alternative splicing (AS) events on numerous diseases, including cancer. In addition, the generation of alternatively spliced isoforms is frequently noted to result in drug resistance in many cancer therapies. To gain comprehensive insights into the impacts of AS events on cancer biology and therapeutic developments...
متن کاملAlternative splicing in human tumour viruses: a therapeutic target?
Persistent infection with cancer risk-related viruses leads to molecular, cellular and immune response changes in host organisms that in some cases direct cellular transformation. Alternative splicing is a conserved cellular process that increases the coding complexity of genomes at the pre-mRNA processing stage. Human and other animal tumour viruses use alternative splicing as a process to max...
