Balance between these two genetically linked entities is controlled by alternative splicing of intron-1, whose retention alters SRAP reading frame," investigators in Winnipeg, Canada report.

"We have previously found that both fully-spliced SRAP-coding and intron-1-containing non-coding SRA RNAs co-exist in breast cancer cell lines. Herein, we report a significant (Students t-test, P 0.003) higher SRAintron-1 relative expression in breast tumors with higher...
