SnapShot: Splicing Alterations in Cancer

Rahman, M. A., Krainer, A. R., Abdel-Wahab, O. (January 2020) SnapShot: Splicing Alterations in Cancer. Cell, 180 (1). 208-208.e1. ISSN 0092-8674

Abstract

RNA splicing, the spliceosome-catalyzed process by which pre-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) is processed to mature mRNA, is altered in a number of ways in cancer. Tumor-specific splicing alterations are created by mutations that disrupt splicing-regulatory elements within genes and impair splicing recognition or by altering the RNA-binding preferences of individual splicing factors. This SnapShot summarizes our current understanding of splicing-factor alterations in cancers.
