  2. 6. Alternative splicing of interleukin-7

    Author : Nalini Kumar Vudattu; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Alternative splicing of pre-mRNA is the primary source of creating proteome diversity in humans; it is therefore highly relevant to disease and therapy. Alternative splicing has been described for many cytokines and these splice variants appear to function as either agonists or as antagonists of the wildtype cytokine. READ MORE
