“…This is supported by different mechanisms including alternative splicing, polyadenylation and apoptosis in somatic and germ cells, and the obvious examples of genes are hnRNPG-T, CSTF2T, and BIRC8 (Elliott et al, 2000;Richter et al, 2001;Dass et al, 2002;Grozdanov et al, 2018;Bousoik et al, 2019;Zhou et al, 2019;Yan et al, 2021). RBMX protein has been implicated in splice site selection, and RBMX-derived retrogene product, hnRNPG-T, could be specialized in alternative splicing in germ cells (Elliott et al, 2000;Zhou et al, 2019;Yan et al, 2021). CSTF2T could function in the non-canonical polyadenylation of mRNAs in germ cells (Dass et al, 2002;Grozdanov et al, 2018).…”
