Trans-splicing is a unique process in gene expression where a short sequence, known as a spliced leader (SL), is added to the 5' end of mRNA molecules. This mechanism is particularly significant in ...

In an important new study, Chinese researchers have discovered the previously unrecognized role of alternative splicing of the DOC2A gene in schizophrenia. The research was conducted by scientists led ...

Scientists at the Hospital for Sick Children (SickKids) and the University of Las Vegas Nevada (UNLV) have uncovered a genetic link between autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and a rare genetic condition ...

Johns Hopkins researchers have developed a powerful new AI tool called "Splam" that can identify where splicing occurs in genes—an advance that could help scientists analyze genetic data with greater ...

Vigeneron GmbH has received IND approval from the FDA for VG-801, a novel mRNA trans-splicing gene therapy to treat Stargardt disease and other retinal dystrophies associated with mutations in the ...
