First intron length in mammals is associated with 5’ exon skipping rate

2015-08-12

Abstract excerpt

The first introns in eukaryotes are much longer than downstream introns. While the functional roles of large first introns have been studied extensively, investigations into the mechanisms leading up to extreme lengths are limited. Prominently, Hong et al. noted that the first introns are predominantly in 5’ UTR and suggested that its lengthening may have resulted from a 5’-ward shifting of donor site due to a low...
