Origins and Evolution of Human Tandem Duplicated Exon Substitution Events

Abstract: The mutually exclusive splicing of tandem duplicated exons produces protein isoforms that are identical save for a homologous region that allows for the fine tuning of protein function. Tandem duplicated exon substitution events are rare, yet highly important alternative splicing events. Most events are ancient, their isoforms are highly expressed, and they have significantly more pathogenic mutations than other splice event. Here we analysed the physicochemical properties and functional roles o… Show more

“…Identifying genomic regions and specific genes that are susceptible to structural variant mutagenesis and result in exonic CNVs can assist gene variant-rare disease trait association research and candidate disease gene discovery. The reason for genomic architecture predisposing to CNV is also recognized at the gene level to have an evolutionary role, that is the duplication of genes to contribute to genomic plasticity and the creation of paralogs with unique functions ( 39 , 40 ). Understanding genomic instability and loss of genome integrity can further provide an adjuvant analytical tool for clinical genomic laboratories working to identify potential disease-contributing variations and molecular diagnoses.…”
