Convergence of Acquired Mutations and Alternative Splicing of CD19 Enables Resistance to CART-19 Immunotherapy

…, G Wu, R Sussman, C Lanauze, M Ruella, MR Gazzara… - Cancer discovery, 2015 - AACR
The CD19 antigen, expressed on most B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias (B-ALL), can
be targeted with chimeric antigen receptor–armed T cells (CART-19), but relapses with …

A new view of transcriptome complexity and regulation through the lens of local splicing variations

J Vaquero-Garcia, A Barrera, MR Gazzara… - elife, 2016 - elifesciences.org
10.7554/eLife.11752.001 Alternative splicing (AS) can critically affect gene function and
disease, yet mapping splicing variations remains a challenge. Here, we propose a new …

[HTML][HTML] Retention of CD19 intron 2 contributes to CART-19 resistance in leukemias with subclonal frameshift mutations in CD19

…, D Oldridge, F Ibrahim, M Maragkakis, MR Gazzara… - Leukemia, 2020 - nature.com
Every successful cancer therapy story has Exhibit B, comprised of patients who either did not
respond to the initial treatment or acquired resistance after a seemingly curative intervention…

[HTML][HTML] Co-regulatory activity of hnRNP K and NS1-BP in influenza and human mRNA splicing

…, P Bhat, R Roytenberg, J Lindberg, MR Gazzara… - Nature …, 2018 - nature.com
Three of the eight RNA segments encoded by the influenza A virus (IAV) undergo alternative
splicing to generate distinct proteins. Previously, we found that host proteins hnRNP K and …

Widespread JNK-dependent alternative splicing induces a positive feedback loop through CELF2-mediated regulation of MKK7 during T-cell activation

…, L Agosto, J Qiu, MJ Mallory, MR Gazzara… - Genes & …, 2015 - genesdev.cshlp.org
Alternative splicing is prevalent among genes encoding signaling molecules; however, the
functional consequence of differential isoform expression remains largely unknown. Here we …

Integrative deep models for alternative splicing

A Jha, MR Gazzara, Y Barash - Bioinformatics, 2017 - academic.oup.com
Motivation Advancements in sequencing technologies have highlighted the role of alternative
splicing (AS) in increasing transcriptome complexity. This role of AS, combined with the …

[HTML][HTML] Enhanced integrated gradients: improving interpretability of deep learning models using splicing codes as a case study

A Jha, J K. Aicher, M R. Gazzara, D Singh, Y Barash - Genome biology, 2020 - Springer
Despite the success and fast adaptation of deep learning models in biomedical domains,
their lack of interpretability remains an issue. Here, we introduce Enhanced Integrated …

Induced transcription and stability of CELF2 mRNA drives widespread alternative splicing during T-cell signaling

…, SJ Allon, J Qiu, MR Gazzara… - Proceedings of the …, 2015 - National Acad Sciences
Studies in several cell types have highlighted dramatic and diverse changes in mRNA
processing that occur upon cellular stimulation. However, the mechanisms and pathways that …

Aberrant splicing in B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia

…, V Pillai, SK Tasian, MR Gazzara… - Nucleic acids …, 2018 - academic.oup.com
Aberrant splicing is a hallmark of leukemias with mutations in splicing factor (SF)-encoding
genes. Here we investigated its prevalence in pediatric B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemias (…

Extensible benchmarking of methods that identify and quantify polyadenylation sites from RNA-seq data

S Bryce-Smith, D Burri, MR Gazzara, CJ Herrmann… - RNA, 2023 - rnajournal.cshlp.org
The tremendous rate with which data is generated and analysis methods emerge makes it
increasingly difficult to keep track of their domain of applicability, assumptions, limitations, and …
