A catalogue of splice junction sequences.

چکیده
Splice junction sequences from a large number of nuclear and viral genes encoding protein have been collected. The sequence CAAG/GTAGAGT was found to be a consensus of 139 exon-intron boundaries (or donor sequences) and (TC)nNCTAG/G was found to be a consensus of 130 intron-exon boundaries (or acceptor sequences). The possible role of splice junction sequences as signals for processing is discussed.

Assessment of genetic diversity among and within Iranian chamomile populations using semi random intron-exon splice junction (ISJ) markers
Chamomile (Matricaria chamomilla), an important medicinal plant belonging to the Asteraceae family, has a wide distribution in Iran and other parts of the world. The medicinal and pharmacological effects of chamomile are mainly associated with its essential oil content and it is widely used in food, cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries. Despite its wide geographical distribution in Iran, lit...
متن کاملExon Junction Sequences as Cryptic Splice Sites Implications for Intron Origin
Introns are flanked by a partially conserved coding sequence that forms the immediate exon junction sequence following intron removal from pre-mRNA. Phylogenetic evidence indicates that these sequences have been targeted by numerous intron insertions during evolution, but little is known about this process. Here, we test the prediction that exon junction sequences were functional splice sites t...
متن کاملIdentifying Splice-Junction Sequences by Hierarchical Multiclassifier
Splice sites are locations in DNA which separate protein-coding regions (exons) from noncoding regions (introns). Recently, several works have approached the splice-junction problem by applying methods from the field of machine learning techniques. In this work, we propose a hierarchical multiclassifier (HM) architecture, whose results show a drastically error reduction with respect to the perf...
متن کاملAnalysis of canonical and non-canonical splice sites in mammalian genomes.
A set of 43 337 splice junction pairs was extracted from mammalian GenBank annotated genes. Expressed sequence tag (EST) sequences support 22 489 of them. Of these, 98.71% contain canonical dinucleotides GT and AG for donor and acceptor sites, respectively; 0.56% hold non-canonical GC-AG splice site pairs; and the remaining 0.73% occurs in a lot of small groups (with a maximum size of 0.05%). S...
متن کاملAn ancient RNase H1 splice junction mutant preserved in a 19-million-year-old genetic fossil in ape genomes.
A retroprocessed pseudogene (retropseudogene) descended from the gene encoding ribonuclease (RNase) H1 has been found in ape genomes that preserves a splice junction mutation event that altered the carboxyl-terminal end of the enzyme. The GT --> GC transition mutant at the 5' splice junction of RNase H1 exon 7/intron 7 led to the absence of exon 8 and more than 1 kb of intron 7 sequence being s...
