Rodent-specific alternative exons are more frequent in rapidly evolving genes and in paralogs

BACKGROUND: Alternative splicing is an important mechanism for generating functional and evolutionary diversity of proteins in eukaryotes. Here, we studied the frequency and functionality of recently gained, rodent-specific alternative exons. RESULTS: We projected the data about alternative splicing...
