Abstract:Background
Alternative splicing (AS) is a process that mRNA precursor splices intron to form the mature mRNA. AS plays important roles in contributing to transcriptome and proteome divert. However, to date there is no research about pig AS in genome-wide level by RNA sequencing.
Results
To characterize the AS in pigs, herein we detected genome-wide transcripts and events by RNA sequencing technology (RNA-seq) 34 different tissues in Duroc pigs. In total, we identified 138, 403 AS events and 29, 270 expressed g… Show more
