Dysregulated alternative splicing (AS) plays critical roles in driving cancer progression, and the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here, we demonstrated that PHF5A, a component of U2 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins, was frequently upregulated in colorectal cancer (CRC) samples and associated with poor prognosis. PHF5A promoted proliferation and metastasis of CRC cells and . Transcriptomic analysis identified PHF5A-regulated AS targets and pathways. Particularly, PHF5A induced TEAD2 exon 2 inclusion to activate YAP signaling, and interference of TEAD2-L partially reversed the PHF5A-mediated tumor progression. Pharmacological inhibition of PHF5A using pladienolide B had potent antitumor activity. Collectively, these data revealed the oncogenic role of PHF5A in CRC through regulating AS and established PHF5A as potential therapeutic target.

Alternative splicing (AS) plays an important role in neuronal development, function, and disease. Efforts to analyze the transcriptome of AS in neurons on a wide scale are currently limited. We characterized the transcriptome-wide AS changes in SH-SY5Y neuronal differentiation model, which is widely used to study neuronal function and disorders.

-methyladenosine (mA) in eukaryotic RNA is an epigenetic modification that is critical for RNA metabolism, gene expression regulation, and the development of organisms. Aberrant expression of mA components appears in a variety of human diseases. RNA mA modification in has proven to be involved in sex determination regulated by and may affect X chromosome expression through the MSL complex.

Increasing evidence suggests that aberrant alternative splicing plays crucial roles in tumorigenesis. However, the function of EZH2 splice variants as well as the mechanism by which EZH2 alternative splicing occurs in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remain elusive. Here, we analyzed both our own and published transcriptomic data, obtaining 19 splice variants of EZH2 in addition to canonical full-length EZH2-A in HCC.

is an aquatic plant with a high ornamental value due to its flower. Despite the release of several versions of the lotus genome, its annotation remains inefficient, which makes it difficult to obtain a more comprehensive knowledge when -omic studies are applied to understand the different biological processes. Focusing on the petaloid of the lotus flower, we conducted a comparative proteomic analysis among five major floral organs.
