Epstein-Barr Virus SM Protein Functions as an Alternative Splicing Factor
8 May 2008
Abstract excerpt
Alternative splicing of RNA increases the coding potential of the genome and allows for additional regulatory control over gene expression. The full extent of alternative splicing remains to be defined but is likely to significantly expand the size of the human transcriptome. There are several examples of mammalian viruses regulating viral splicing or inhibiting cellular splicing in order to facilitate viral...
