Cis-acting short sequence motifs play important roles in alternative splicing. It is now possible to identify such sequence motifs as conserved sequence patterns in genome sequence alignments. Here, we report the systematic search for motifs in the neighboring introns of alternatively spliced exons by using comparative analysis of mammalian genome alignments. We identified 11 conserved sequence motifs that might be involved in the regulation of alternative splicing. These motifs are not only significantly overrepresented near alternatively spliced exons, but they also co-occur with each other, thus, forming a network of cis-elements, likely to be the basis for context-dependent regulation. Based on this finding, we applied the motif co-occurrence to predict alternatively skipped exons. We verified exon skipping in 29 cases out of 118 predictions (25%) by EST and mRNA sequences in the databases. For the predictions not verified by the database sequences, we confirmed exon skipping in 10 additional cases by using both RT–PCR experiments and the publicly available RNA-Seq data. These results indicate that even more alternative splicing events will be found with the progress of large-scale and high-throughput analyses for various tissue samples and developmental stages. 相似文献

Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis on chromosome 6 was performed to define the genetic changes that occur in the development of squamous cell cervical cancer (SCC). Detailed analysis with 28 microsatellite markers revealed several loci with high frequency of deletions at the short (6p25, 6p22, 6p21.3) and long (6q14, 6q16–q21, 6q23–q24, 6q25, 6q27) arms of chromosome 6. Examination of microdissected 37 SCC and 22 cervical intraepithelial neoplasias (CIN) revealed allelic deletions in the HLA class I–III region (6p22–p21.3) and at subtelomeric locus 6p25-ter in more than 40% of CIN. By a combination of LOH and microdissection of multiple samples from the same tumor sections, we studied the intratumoral genetic heterogeneity of SCC, and identified clonal and subclonal allelic deletions. Half of SCC had clonal allelic deletion at D6S273, which is localized in intron of Ly6G6D (MEGT1) gene mapped in the HLA class III region. The LOH frequency at 6q in CIN cases did not exceed 20%. Allelic deletions at two loci, 6q14 and 6q16–q21, were for the first time associated with invasion and metastasis in SCC. 相似文献
