Splicing QTL mapping in stimulated macrophages associates low-usage splice junctions with immune-mediated disease risk - Nature Communications
The authors show that alternative splicing is an important layer of macrophage response to environmental stimuli. Genetic determinants of this response, often targeting low-usage splicing events, are ...

Through alternative splicing, cells can assemble messenger RNA in different ways – all from one gene 🧬
We spoke to Omar El Garwany, who is exploring the role of alternative splicing in IBD, to find out more about this process and what happens when errors occur.
