Alternative splicing as a regulator of development and tissue identity

Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology 18, 437 (2017). doi:10.1038/nrm.2017.27 Authors: Francisco E. Baralle & Jimena Giudice Alternative splicing of eukaryotic transcripts is a mechanism that enables cells to generate vast protein diversity from a limited number of genes. The mechanisms and outcomes of alternative splicing of individual transcripts are relatively well understood, and recent efforts have been directed towards studying splicing
