Investigating the protein and RNA interactions of the Polypyrimidine Tract Binding protein : high resolution structures with implications in the regulation of alternative splicing

Alternative splicing produces multiple mRNAs from a single gene. It is a powerful mechanism used to amplify complexity of the metazoan proteome. The Polypyrimidine Tract Binding protein (PTB) is a key regulator of alternative splicing. In addition, it has roles in the localization and stability of m...
