Abstract

Since the discovery of RNA splicing as a fundamental step to remove introns from pre-mRNA to produce mature mRNAs, substantial research in the past decades has highlighted RNA splicing as a critical mediator of gene expression and proteome diversity, also being important in many developmental and biological processes [...].
