A Method to Quantitatively Examine Heat Stress-Induced Alternative Splicing in Plants by RNA-Seq and RT-PCR
Alternative splicing (AS) of pre-mRNAs is a type of post-transcriptional regulation in eukaryotes that expands the number of mRNA isoforms. Intron... -
Alternative splicing diversifies the skeletal muscle transcriptome during prolonged spaceflight
BackgroundAs the interest in manned spaceflight increases, so does the requirement to understand the transcriptomic mechanisms that underlay the...
