Figure 1From: Transcriptome analysis of the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans directed to the global identification of promotersAlternative splicing of A. nidulans transcripts. (A) Three examples of exon skipping/retention identified by whole transcriptome mapping and experimentally verified. (B) An extreme example of alternative splicing: a putative snoRNA cluster on chromosome V. Black boxes represent putative snoRNAs, grey boxes represent exons. Solid lines represent splicing events verified by RT-PCR. (C) Intron retention (solid lines beneath diagram) verified by RT-PCR and sequencing in the snoRNA cluster. The cluster displays a complex combination of splicing, intron retention and exon skipping.Back to article page
