The adenovirus E1A gene encodes five overlapping mRNAs which are processed by alternative RNA splicing from a common pre-mRNA. To characterize cis-acting sequence elements which are of importance for the alternative 5'-splice site selection deletion and substitution mutants within the intron that is common to all E1A mRNAs were constructed. Deletion of the wild-type E1A branch site/polypyrimidi...
The role of domain 5 (d5) from the self-splicing group II intron 5 gamma of the COXI gene of yeast mitochondrial DNA in branching and 3' splice site utilization has been studied using a substrate transcript lacking d5 (delta d5 RNA). This RNA is completely unreactive in vitro, but releases 5' exon by hydrolysis under various reaction conditions when d5 RNA is added in trans. Under an extreme re...
The removal of introns from eukaryotic RNA transcripts requires the activities of five multi-component ribonucleoprotein complexes and numerous associated proteins. The lack of mutations affecting splicing factors essential for animal survival has limited the study of the in vivo regulation of splicing. From a screen for suppressors of the Caenorhabditis elegans unc-93(e1500) rubberband Unc phe...
In 1997, McGrath et al. described the first case of a rare autosomal recessive inherited skin disease resulting from loss-of-function mutations in plakophilin 1 (PKP1), a component of desmosomes, cell–cell junctions found primarily in epithelial tissues (1). Plakophilin 1 is a member of the armadillo family of structural and signalling proteins and it contributes to the mechanical integrity and...
The splicing of messenger RNA precursors in vitro proceeds through an intermediate that has the 5' end of the intervening sequence joined to a site near the 3' splice site. This lariat structure, which has been characterized for an adenovirus 2 major late transcript, has a branch point, with 2'-5' and 3'-5' phosphodiester bonds emanating from a single adenosine residue. The excised intervening ...
Splice sites are locations in DNA which separate protein-coding regions (exons) from noncoding regions (introns). Accurate splice site detectors thus form important components of computational gene finders. We pose splice site recognition as a classification problem with the classifier learnt from a labeled data set consisting of only local information around the potential splice site. Note tha...
Gene trap vectors developed for genome-wide mutagenesis can be used to study factors governing the expression of exons inserted throughout the genome. For example, entrapment vectors consisting of a partial 3'-terminal exon [i.e. a neomycin resistance gene (Neo), a poly(A) site, but no 3' splice site] were typically expressed following insertion into introns, from cellular transcripts that spli...
Metazoan introns contain a polypyrimidine tract immediately upstream of the AG dinucleotide that defines the 3' splice site. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, 3' splice sites are characterized by a highly conserved UUUUCAG/R octamer motif. While the conservation of pyrimidines in this motif is strongly suggestive of their importance in pre-mRNA splicing, in vivo evidence in support of thi...
Heterologous introns are often inaccurately or inefficiently processed in higher plants. The precise features that distinguish the process of pre-mRNA splicing in plants from splicing in yeast and mammals are unclear. One contributing factor is the prominent base compositional contrast between U-rich plant introns and flanking G + C-rich exons. Inclusion of this contrast factor in recently deve...
