Functional impact of transposable elements using bioinformatic analysis and a comparative genomic approach

A dual coding event, which is the translation of different isoforms from a single gene, is one of the special patterns among the alternative splicing events. This is an important mechanism for the regulation of protein diversity in human and mouse genomes. Although the regulation for dual coding events has been characterized in a few genes, the individual mechanism remains unclear. Numerous studies have described the exonization of transposable...
