Global analysis of alternative splicing during T-cell activation

Abstract excerpt

The role of alternative splicing (AS) in eliciting immune responses is poorly understood. We used quantitative AS microarray profiling to survey changes in AS during activation of Jurkat cells, a leukemia-derived T-cell line. Our results indicate that approximately 10-15% of the profiled alternative exons undergo a >10% change in inclusion level during activation. The majority of the genes displaying differential...
