The origin of introns and their role in eukaryogenesis: a compromise solution to the introns-early versus introns-late debate? by Koonin Eugene V

“…<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Ever since the discovery of 'genes in pieces' and mRNA splicing in eukaryotes, origin and evolution of spliceosomal introns have been considered within the conceptual framework of the 'introns early' versus 'introns late' debate. …”

Evolutionary history of teleost intron-containing and intron-less rhodopsin genes by Chihiro Fujiyabu, Keita Sato, Ni Made Laksmi Utari, Hideyo Ohuchi, Yoshinori Shichida, Takahiro Yamashita

“…Among them, most opsin genes have introns in their coding regions. However, it has been known for a long time that teleost retinas express intron-less rhodopsin genes, which are presumed to have been formed by retroduplication from an ancestral intron-containing rhodopsin gene. …”

Intron evolution: testing hypotheses of intron evolution using the phylogenomics of tetraspanins. by Antonio Garcia-España, Roso Mares, Tung-Tien Sun, Rob Desalle

“…Although large scale informatics studies on introns can be useful in making broad inferences concerning patterns of intron gain and loss, more specific questions about intron evolution at a finer scale can be addressed using a gene family where structure and function are well known. …”

Detained introns are a novel, widespread class of post-transcriptionally spliced introns by Sharp, Phillip A., Boutz, Paul, Bhutkar, Arjun

“…Deep sequencing of embryonic stem cell RNA revealed many specific internal introns that are significantly more abundant than the other introns within polyadenylated transcripts; we classified these as “detained” introns (DIs). …”

The leader intron of <it>AtMHX </it>can elicit, in the absence of splicing, low-level intron-mediated enhancement that depends on the internal intron sequence by Berezin Irina, Akua Tsofit, Shaul Orit

“…Although introns sometimes function as transcriptional enhancers, they usually stimulate expression by a process termed intron-mediated enhancement (IME). …”
