How to know the definite splice-site
If we know the definite exon position along the genome, how can we know the exact position of splice-site?

what do you mean? exon-intron border is splice site -
Dear zslee,
I want to know how many base pairs are recognized as splice-site on the border of exon-intron in generalComment
-
as for splicing sites, i think at least in protein coding genes it should be exact the exon-intron boundary, because any error may cause frame shift.
i think you want to know the length of sequence of splice site signal,which contain donor site, acceptor site and branch site,
GT-AG in 5' and 3' ends of introns is highly conserved and important, there're also some other positions in the boundary that are conserved and important for accurate splicing, in veterbrates the length is about 10-20 bp around the E-I boundary according to my knowledge( anyone can correct me
)
you can refer to

Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
