Identification of evolutionarily conserved exons as regulated targets for the splicing activator tra2β in development (2011)
Journal Article
Grellscheid, S., Dalgliesh, C., Storbeck, M., Best, A., Liu, Y., Jakubik, M., Mende, Y., Ehrmann, I., Curk, T., Rossbach, K., Bourgeois, C. F., Stévenin, J., Grellscheid, D., Jackson, M. S., Wirth, B., & Elliott, D. J. (2011). Identification of evolutionarily conserved exons as regulated targets for the splicing activator tra2β in development.

Alternative splicing amplifies the information content of the genome, creating multiple mRNA isoforms from single genes. The evolutionarily conserved splicing activator Tra2β (Sfrs10) is essential for mouse embryogenesis and implicated in spermatogen...

Molecular design of a splicing switch responsive to the RNA binding protein Tra2β (2011)
Journal Article
Grellscheid, S., Dalgliesh, C., Rozanska, A., Grellscheid, D., Bourgeois, C., Stévenin, J., & Elliott, D. (2011). Molecular design of a splicing switch responsive to the RNA binding protein Tra2β. Nucleic Acids Research, 39(18), 8092-8104. https://doi.org/10.1093/nar/gkr495

Tra2β regulates a number of splicing switches including activation of the human testis-specific exon HIPK3-T in the Homeodomain Interacting Protein Kinase 3 gene. By testing HIPK3-T exons of different intrinsic strengths, we found Tra2β most efficien... Read More about Molecular design of a splicing switch responsive to the RNA binding protein Tra2β.
