    RBM25 is a global splicing factor promoting inclusion of alternatively spliced exons and is itself regulated by lysine mono-methylation.

    Carlson SM, Soulette CM, Yang Z, Elias JE, Brooks AN, Gozani O. J Biol Chem. 2017 Aug 11;292(32):13381-13390. doi: 10.1074/jbc.M117.784371. Epub 2017 Jun 27. Abstract In eukaryotes, precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) splicing removes non-coding intron sequences to produce mature mRNA. This removal is controlled in part by RNA-binding proteins that regulate alternative splicing decisions through interactions with…
