ELAV/Hu factors are conserved RNA binding proteins that play diverse roles in mRNA processing and regulation. The founding member, Drosophila Elav, was recognized as a vital neural factor 35 years ago
We report striking differences in the substrate specificities of two human SR proteins, SF2/ASF and SC35, in constitutive splicing. β-Globin pre-mRNA (exons 1 and 2) is spliced indiscriminately with e
Fidelity of 3´-splice site (3´SS) selection by the spliceosome is critical for proper gene expression but is a daunting task considering the low complexity of the 3´SS consensus YAG. Here we show that
Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) is a heterogenous group of clonal hematopoietic disorders characterized by ineffective hematopoiesis, cytopenias and dysplasia. The gene encoding Ten-ele¬ven translocati
