A human-specific switch of alternatively spliced <i>AFMID</i> isoforms contributes to <i>TP53</i> mutations and tumor recurrence in hepatocellular carcinoma
2017-07-26
Abstract excerpt
Pre-mRNA splicing can contribute to the switch of cell identity that occurs in carcinogenesis. Here we analyze a large collection of RNA-Seq datasets and report that splicing changes in hepatocyte-specific enzymes, such as AFMID and KHK , are associated with HCC patients’ survival and relapse. The switch of AFMID isoforms is an early event in HCC development, and is associated with driver mutations in TP53 and...
