Alternative splicing: an emerging topic in molecular and clinical oncology.

Abstract excerpt

Alternative pre-mRNA splicing is a key molecular event that allows for protein diversity. Through this process, a single gene increases its coding capacity by expressing several related proteins with diverse and even antagonistic functions. Aberrant splicing has been found to be associated with various diseases, including cancer. Mutations in splicing regulatory elements within the nucleotide sequence and...
