TL;DR: The small RNA profile of Drosophila melanogaster is described as a function of development and 178 repeat-associated small interfering RNAs (rasiRNAs) are isolated, suggesting that small RNAs participate in defining chromatin structure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Alternative splicing of mouse transcription factors affects their DNA-binding domain architecture and is tissue specific
TL;DR: This study provides quantitative evidence that alternative splicing preferentially adds or deletes domains important to the DNA-binding function of the TFs, and provides significant biological insights into control of transcription and regulation of tissue-specific gene expression by alternative splice variants via creation of tissues-specific TF isoforms.
Book ChapterDOI
Databases for comparative analysis of human-mouse orthologous alternative splicing
TL;DR: Two databases of the human and the mouse transcriptomes, HumanSDB3 and MouSDB5 respectively, are developed that showed that alternative splicing events in both of the transcriptomes are mainly due to the presence or absence of internal cassette exons.
Distribution of Alternatively Spliced Transcript Isoforms within Human and Mouse Transcriptomes
TL;DR: It is observed that for majority of the genes (80%) there is a single dominant isoform per gene, independent of transcript sequence sampling depths, both in human and in mouse transcriptomes.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Alternative Splicing in the Fly and the Worm: Splicing Databases for Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elegans
TL;DR: Two new alternative splicing databases for the model organisms, Drosophila melanogaster and Caenorhabditis elengans, are presented and it is shown that the majority ofAlternative splicing in both genomes is due to cassette exons.
