Splicing
- PRP8A and PRP8B spliceosome subunits act coordinately to control pollen tube attraction in Arabidopsis thaliana
Summary: PRP8A/PRP8B splicing factors exhibit spliceosome autoregulation, which is necessary for successful fertilization in Arabidopsis.
- The splicing co-factor Barricade/Tat-SF1 is required for cell cycle and lineage progression in Drosophila neural stem cells
Summary: Barricade associates with the U2 snRNP complex, prevents intron retention, and is required for neural progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation in the Drosophila larval brain.
- Circular RNAs: analysis, expression and potential functions
Summary: This Primer outlines the discovery, roles and regulation of circular RNAs, focussing on their potential functions during development.
