Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: RNA splicing, a fundamental step in gene expression, is aimed at intron removal and ordering of exons to form the protein's reading frame. OBJECTIVE: This review is focused on the role of RNA splicing in cancer biology; the splicing abnormalities that lead to tumor progression emerge as targets for therapeutic intervention. METHODS: We discuss the role of aberrant mRNA splicing in carcinogenesis and...
