Nucleotide levels regulate germline proliferation through modulating GLP-1/Notch signaling in C. elegans.

abstract：:We have purified and cloned a new splicing factor, KSRP. KSRP is a component of a multiprotein complex that binds specifically to an intronic splicing enhancer element downstream of the neuron-specific c-src N1 exon. This 75-kD protein induces the assembly of five other proteins, including the heterogeneous nuclear ri...
