The Usage of Exon-Exon Splice Junctions for the Detection of Alternative Splicing using the REIDS model (2018)
Journal Article

Alternative gene splicing is a common phenomenon in which a single gene gives rise to multiple transcript isoforms. The process is strictly guided and involves a multitude of proteins and regulatory complexes. Unfortunately, aberrant splicing events...
