Species-specific exon loss in human transcriptomes.
Changes in exon-intron structures and splicing patterns represent an important mechanism for the evolution of gene functions and species-specific regulatory networks. Although exon creation is widespread during primate and human evolution and has been studied extensively, much less is known about the scope and potential impact of human-specific exon loss events. Historically, transcriptome data...
متن کاملMapping Human Pluripotent-to-Cardiomyocyte Differentiation: Methylomes, Transcriptomes, and Exon DNA Methylation “Memories”
The directed differentiation of human cardiomyocytes (CMs) from pluripotent cells provides an invaluable model for understanding mechanisms of cell fate determination and offers considerable promise in cardiac regenerative medicine. Here, we utilize a human embryonic stem cell suspension bank, produced according to a good manufacturing practice, to generate CMs using a fully defined and small m...
متن کاملMutation Identification in Exon 10 of SLC26A4 Gene in Individuals with Hearing Loss in Guilan Province
Introduction: Mutation in SLC26A4 gene is one of reason of syndromic and non-syndomic hearing loss. Mutation in this gene is reported to be the second most common cause of deafness in the worldwide, after GJB2 gene. The aim of this study was to evaluate mutations in exon 10 of SLC26A4 gene in individuals with hearing loss in Guilan province. Materials and Methods: In this descriptive cross-sect...
متن کاملModeling Skewness in Human Transcriptomes
Gene expression data are influenced by multiple biological and technological factors leading to a wide range of dispersion scenarios, although skewed patterns are not commonly addressed in microarray analyses. In this study, the distribution pattern of several human transcriptomes has been studied on free-access microarray gene expression data. Our results showed that, even in previously normal...
متن کاملCEPiNS: Conserved Exon Prediction in Novel Species
Exon structure is relatively well conserved among orthologs in several large clades of species (e.g. Mammalia, Diptera, Lepidoptera) across evolutionary distances of up to 80 million years. Thus, it should be straightforward to predict the exon structures in novel species based upon the known exon structures of species that have had their genomes sequenced and well assembled. Being able to pred...
