When pitch adds to volume: coregulation of transcript diversity predicts gene function.
Alejandro CáceresJuan R GonzálezPublished in: BMC genomics (2018)
We show that coregulation of transcript diversities provides novel biological insights in gene physiology and helps to interpret GWAS results. Co-splicing correlations are reliable and frequent and should be further pursued to help predict gene function. Our results additionally support current AD interventions aiming at the ubiquitin proteosome pathway but unveil the need to consider transcript diversity in addition to volume to assess treatment response and susceptibility to the disease.
