Prolyl cis-trans Isomerization as a molecular timer in Crk signaling.

abstract：:Alternative mRNA splicing of the fibronectin EDI exon is controlled by a purine-rich exonic splicing enhancer (ESE), postulated as a binding site for SR proteins. By using a transient expression alternative splicing assay combined with promoter swapping, we have demonstrated that the promoter can also control EDI spli...
