Whole-exome sequencing studies have identified common mutations affecting genes encoding components of the RNA splicing machinery in hematological malignancies. Here, we sought to determine how mutations affecting the 3' splice site recognition factor U2AF1 altered its normal role in RNA splicing. W...

Peroxisomes are versatile single membrane-enclosed cytoplasmic organelles, involved in reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lipid metabolism and diverse other metabolic processes. Peroxisomal disorders result from mutations in Pex genes-encoded proteins named peroxins (PEX proteins) and single peroxiso...

Using RNA-Seq analysis of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) mutant strains, we show that many Saccharomyces cerevisiae intron-containing genes exhibit usage of alternative splice sites, but most transcripts generated by splicing from these sites are non-functional because they introduce premature t...

Distinct and convergent consequences of splice factor mutations in myelodysplastic syndromes
The Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (ERBB2 or HER2) is amplified and overexpressed in approximately 20% of invasive breast cancers and is associated with metastasis and poor prognosis. Here we describe the role of a constitutively active splice variant of HER2 (Delta-HER2) in human mammary epithe...

The androgen receptor (AR) plays a key role in progression to incurable androgen-ablation resistant prostate cancer (PCA). We have identified three novel AR splice variants lacking the ligand binding domain (designated as AR3, AR4 and AR5) in hormone insensitive PCA cells. AR3, one of the major spl...

We have recently shown that transcription initiation RNAs (tiRNAs) are derived from sequences downstream of transcription start sites. Here we report the identification of a second class of nuclear-specific ~17-18 nucleotide small RNA whose 3M-bM-^@M-^Y ends map precisely to the splice donor site of...

Aberrant splice variants are involved in the initiation and/or progression of glial brain tumors. We therefore set out to identify splice variants that are differentially expressed between histological subgroups of gliomas. Splice variants were identified using a novel platform that profiles the exp...

Analysis of splice variants from short read RNA-seq data remains a challenging problem. Here we present a novel method for the genome-guided prediction and quantification of splice events from RNA-seq data, which enables the analysis of unannotated and complex splice events. Splice junctions and exo...
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common form of adult blindness. Risk of developing AMD is strongly linked to genetics, in particular at the Regulators of Complement Activation (RCA) locus on Chr1, which contains 6 genes, Complement Factor H (CFH) and Complement Factor H-related 1-5 (CFHR...
