How to know the definite splice-site
If we know the definite exon position along the genome, how can we know the exact position of splice-site?

what do you mean? exon-intron border is splice site -
Dear zslee,
I want to know how many base pairs are recognized as splice-site on the border of exon-intron in generalComment
-
as for splicing sites, i think at least in protein coding genes it should be exact the exon-intron boundary, because any error may cause frame shift.
i think you want to know the length of sequence of splice site signal,which contain donor site, acceptor site and branch site,
GT-AG in 5' and 3' ends of introns is highly conserved and important, there're also some other positions in the boundary that are conserved and important for accurate splicing, in veterbrates the length is about 10-20 bp around the E-I boundary according to my knowledge( anyone can correct me
)
you can refer to

CRISPR/Cas9 sparked the gene editing revolution for both research and therapeutics.1 But this system still showed severe issues that limited its applications. The most prominent were the heavy reliance on PAM sequences, delivery limitations, double-stranded breaks that prompt unintended edits and cell death, and editing inefficiency (both in targeting and in knock-in reliability).
Despite this, “CRISPR helped turn genome editing from a specialized technique into...07-31-2026, 11:01 AM -
Proteomics platforms are evolving rapidly, with advances in mass spectrometry and affinity-based approaches expanding what researchers can detect and at what scale. As the field moves toward deeper proteome coverage and clinical applications, scientists face an increasingly complex landscape of tools. This article will explore how researchers are navigating these choices to find the right platform for their work.
The systematic characterization of the human proteome has...07-20-2026, 11:48 AM
