Novel Nine-Exon AR Transcripts (Exon 1/Exon 1b/Exons 2–8) in Normal and Cancerous Breast and Prostate Cells
Nearly 20 different transcripts of the human androgen receptor (AR) are reported with two currently listed as Refseq isoforms in the NCBI database. Isoform 1 encodes wild-type AR (type 1 AR) and isoform 2 encodes the variant AR45 (type 2 AR). Both variants contain eight exons: they share common exons 2-8 but differ in exon 1 with the canonical exon 1 in isoform 1 and the variant exon 1b in isof...
متن کاملAffy exon tissues: exon levels in normal tissues in human, mouse and rat
SUMMARY Most genes in human, mouse and rat produce more than one transcript isoform. The Affymetrix Exon Array is a tool for studying the many processes that regulate RNA production, with separate probesets measuring RNA levels at known and putative exons. For insights on how exons levels vary between normal tissues, we constructed the Affy Exon Tissues track from tissue data published by Affym...
متن کاملIncreased level of exon 12 alternatively spliced BRCA2 transcripts in tumor breast tissue compared with normal tissue.
The breast cancer susceptibility gene BRCA2 is expressed in a wide range of tissues as an 11-kb mRNA transcript encoding a 3418-amino acid protein, which is involved in the response to DNA damage. To obtain a better molecular characterization of BRCA2 expression in breast tissue, we analyzed full-length BRCA2 mRNA by means of reverse transcriptase-PCR with a panel of primer pairs encompassing t...
متن کاملAssembly and mobility of exon-exon junction complexes in living cells.
The exon-exon junction complex (EJC) forms via association of proteins during splicing of mRNA in a defined manner. Its organization provides a link between biogenesis, nuclear export, and translation of the transcripts. The EJC proteins accumulate in nuclear speckles alongside most other splicing-related factors. We followed the establishment of the EJC on mRNA by investigating the mobility an...
متن کاملNovel genetic variation in exon 28 of FBN1 gene is associated with essential hypertension.
BACKGROUND Recently, fibrillin-1 (FBN1) was reported to play an important role in maintaining the physiological arterial stiffness of essential hypertension (EH). Here, we designed a two-stage case-control study to investigate whether the FBN1 gene harbored any genetic variations associated with EH. METHODS In stage 1, six candidate single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the FBN1 gene were...
