Control of alternative splicing in immune responses: many regulators, many predictions, much still to learn

NM Martinez, KW Lynch - Immunological reviews, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Most mammalian pre‐mRNA s are alternatively spliced in a manner that alters the resulting
open reading frame. Consequently, alternative pre‐mRNA splicing provides an important …
