Co-transcriptional splicing regulates 3′ end cleavage during mammalian erythropoiesis
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
Pre-mRNA processing steps are tightly coordinated with transcription in many organisms. To determine how co-transcriptional splicing is integrated with transcription elongation and 3' end formation in mammalian cells, we performed long-read sequencing of individual nascent RNAs and precision run-on sequencing (PRO-seq) during mouse erythropoiesis. Splicing was not accompanied by transcriptional pausing and was detected when RNA polymerase II (Pol II) was within 75-300 nucleotides of 3' splice sites (3'SSs), often during transcription of the downstream exon. Interestingly, several hundred introns displayed abundant splicing intermediates, suggesting that splicing delays can take place between the two catalytic steps. Overall, splicing efficiencies were correlated among introns within the same transcript, and intron retention was associated with inefficient 3' end cleavage. Remarkably, a thalassemia patient-derived mutation introducing a cryptic 3'SS improved both splicing and 3' end cleavage of individual β-globin transcripts, demonstrating functional coupling between the two co-transcriptional processes as a determinant of productive gene output.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
