Fine mapping of calcineurin (PPP3CA) gene reveals novel alternative splicing patterns, association of 5'UTR trinucleotide repeat with addiction vulnerability, and differential isoform expression in Alzheimer's disease.

Text

The alternative spliced PPP3CA variants include or delete exons in this region of that might exert significant differences in PPP3CA function with unique patterns of brain and/or peripheral tissue expression, in manners that suggest specific regulation. CNEX13-15 appears to be selectively preserved in mRNAs from postmortem AD brains in ways that support the specificity of effects on other PPP3CA transcripts and might even suggest that this CNEX13-15 isoform might be expressed by different cell types.
