Microexon alternative splicing and feeding behavior in C. elegans.

This study shows that microexon alternative splicing in C. elegans changes with developmental stage and is influenced by food availability and DNA topology, affecting feeding behavior.

Light regulates widespread plant alternative polyadenylation through the chloroplast

The paper investigates how light regulates alternative polyadenylation (APA) in Arabidopsis thaliana, finding that light affects APA in 30% of genes and involves chloroplasts and mitochondrial activity.

Light remote control of alternative splicing in roots through TOR kinase

The paper shows that sugars act as mobile signals controlling alternative splicing in roots through the TOR kinase pathway, with mitochondria playing a key role in this process.
