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
and
for more informationComment

The sequencing world is rapidly changing due to declining costs, enhanced accuracies, and the advent of newer, cutting-edge instruments. Equally important to these developments are improvements in sequencing analysis, a process that converts vast amounts of raw data into a comprehensible and meaningful form. This complex task requires expertise and the right analysis tools. In this article, we highlight the progress and innovation in sequencing analysis by reviewing several of the...Today, 07:48 AM -
The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist...04-22-2024, 07:01 AM
