Huntington’s disease (HD) is a debilitating neurodegenerative disorder caused by an abnormal expansion of CAG repeats (Cytosine, Adenine, Guanine) in the huntingtin gene (HTT). This mutation leads to the production o...

Dietary restriction usually suppresses biosynthesis but activates catabolic pathways in animals.However,the short-term starvation enhances biosynthetic activities and promotes ribosomal biogenesis in adult Caenorhabdi...
With the development of deep sequencing and bioinformatics technology, a large number of products produced by abnormal RNA splicing, such as chimeric RNA and chimeric/fusion proteins, have been discovered. Natural chi...

Gene fusions are appreciated as ideal cancer biomarkers and therapeutic targets.Chimeric RNAs are traditionally thought to be products of gene fusions,and thus,also cancerspecific.Recent research has demonstrated that...
Trans-splicing, a process involving the cleavage and joining of two separate transcripts, can expand the tran- scriptome and proteome in eukaryotes. Chimeric RNAs generated by trans-splicing are increasingly described...
