Detecting and Validating MAPT Mutations in Neurodegeneration Patients and Analysis of Exon Splicing Consequences
Mutation of MAPT has been observed in patients with parkinsonism, progressive supranuclear palsy, and corticobasal degeneration and is a significant... -
Structural insights into the cross-exon to cross-intron spliceosome switch
Early spliceosome assembly can occur through an intron-defined pathway, whereby U1 and U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles (snRNPs) assemble...
