Conserved long-range RNA structures associated with pre-mRNA processing of human protein-coding genes

TL;DR: This work presents the most complete to-date catalog of conserved long-range RNA structures in the human transcriptome, which consists of 916,360 pairs of Conserved complementary regions (PCCRs) and suggests that RNA folding coupled with splicing could mediate co-transcriptional suppression of premature cleavage and polyadenylation events.
Journal ArticleDOI

BioMoby web services to support clustering of co-regulated genes based on similarity of promoter configurations

TL;DR: A computational protocol to analyze the promoter regions of a given set of co-expressed genes, and its implementation through the use of Web services technologies that are compliant with BioMoby specifications is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of six single nucleotide polymorphisms, risk factors in coronary disease, in OLR1 alternative splicing

TL;DR: The results suggest that antagonism between SRSF1 and S RSF2/HMGA1, and differential recognition of their regulatory motifs depending on the identity of the rs3736234 polymorphism, influence OLR1 exon 5 inclusion and the efficiency of Ox-LDL uptake, with potential implications for atherosclerosis and coronary disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unravelling the hidden DNA structural/physical code provides novel insights on promoter location

TL;DR: The present study strongly supports the hypothesis of an ancient regulatory mechanism encoded by the intrinsic physical properties of the DNA that may contribute to the complexity of transcription regulation in the human genome.
