Exon skipping-rich transcriptomes of animals reflect the significance of exon-shuffling in metazoan proteome evolution
Abstract ᅟ Animals are known to have higher rates of exon skipping than other eukaryotes. In a recent study, Grau-Bové et al. (Genome Biology 19:135, 2018) have used RNA-seq data across 65 eukaryotic species to investigate when and how this high prevalence of exon skipping evolved. They have found t...
