A neuron type-specific microexon in Ank3/ankyrin-G modulates calcium activity and neuronal excitability

Shah Alam, Georgia Dermentzaki, David Cabrera-García, Miao Li, Ruizhi Wang, Melissa Campbell, Ilaria Balbo, Brittany Lynn Phillips, Min Li, Jessica Estrada, Marianna Zazhytska, Yow-Tyng Yeh, Lia Y. Min, Elizabeth E. Rafikian, Elizabeth Valenzuela, , Chaolin Zhang

The paper identifies a neuron type-specific microexon in Ank3/ankyrin-G that modulates calcium activity and neuronal excitability through alternative splicing.

Deep screening of proximal and distal splicing-regulatory elements in a native sequence context

Yocelyn Recinos, Dmytro Ustianenko, Yow-Tyng Yeh, Xiaojian Wang, Martin Jacko, Lekha V. Yesantharao, Qiyang Wu, Chaolin Zhang

The paper develops SpliceRUSH, a high-throughput screening method to map splicing-regulatory elements in their native sequence context, identifying both known and novel SREs in the SMN2 gene.

LIN28 selectively modulates a subclass of let-7 microRNAs

Dmytro Ustianenko, Hua‐Sheng Chiu, Thomas Treiber, Sebastien M. Weyn‐Vanhentenryck, Nora Treiber, Gunter Meister, Pavel Sumazin, Chaolin Zhang

The paper identifies a GAU motif recognized by LIN28's CSD domain, which enhances let-7 microRNA suppression in Class I precursors, contributing to development and cancer.

Precise temporal regulation of alternative splicing during neural development

Sebastien M. Weyn‐Vanhentenryck, Huijuan Feng, Dmytro Ustianenko, Rachel Duffié, Qinghong Yan, Martin Jacko, Jose C. Martinez, Marianne Goodwin, Xuegong Zhang, Ulrich Hengst, Stavros Lomvardas, Maurice S. Swanson, Chaolin Zhang

The paper identifies early- and late-switch exons in neural development and shows they are regulated by RNA-binding proteins, with some neuronal subtypes lacking these regulators and retaining an immature splicing program.
