Gene transcription and pre-messenger RNA (mRNA) splicing are linked processes. Elongation rates influence splicing, and splicing factors modulate transcription, adding complexity to gene expression regulation.

Area of Science:

  • Molecular Biology
  • Gene Expression Regulation
  • Eukaryotic Gene Expression

Background:

  • Transcription and pre-mRNA splicing are complex, interacting molecular processes.
  • Splicing often occurs cotranscriptionally near genes, suggesting coordination.
  • The C-terminal domain (CTD) of RNA polymerase II (pol II) is involved in multiple pre-mRNA processing steps.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review cis- and trans-acting factors regulating transcription and splicing.
  • To discuss the role of the RNA polymerase II CTD in splicing.
  • To explore the reciprocal relationship between transcriptional elongation and splicing.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of transcription and splicing mechanisms.
  • Analysis of regulatory factors and protein interactions.

  • Discussion of evidence linking elongation and splicing.
  • Main Results:

    • Evidence shows reciprocal influence between transcriptional elongation and splicing.
    • Elongation rates affect alternative splicing decisions.
    • Splicing factors can modulate pol II elongation rates.

    Conclusions:

    • Transcription and splicing are functionally coupled, with complex regulatory networks.
    • Proteins with dual roles in transcription and splicing contribute to this complexity.
    • Understanding these links is crucial for deciphering eukaryotic gene expression regulation.
