This article was review by Thomas Cooper, MD from Baylor College of Medicine. Stay up to date on the latest science with Brush Up Summaries. Despite its significance, alternative splicing’s global ...

The immune system's gradual decline with age, known as immune aging, increases susceptibility to infections, autoimmune diseases, and cancers. T cells, crucial for adaptive immunity, undergo ...

Tokyo Medical and Dental University (TMDU) researchers harness long-read RNA sequencing to decode genetic intricacies and disease links. Alternative splicing, a process where a single gene can give ...

Study design to create a database of transcripts, called TRAILS (TRAnscriptomic resource of Immune cells using Long-read Sequencing), from different human immune cell subsets and downstream analysis.

Computational biologists have uncovered how RNA splicing -- a crucial process for isoform expression and protein diversity -- is regulated across different cell types in the peripheral blood. This ...
