Computational analysis of spliced leader trans-splicing in the regenerative flatworm <i>Macrostomum lignano</i> reveals its prevalence in conserved and stem cell related genes

In eukaryotes, trans-splicing is a process of nuclear pre-mRNA maturation where two different RNA molecules are joined together by the spliceosomal machinery utilizing mechanisms similar to cis-splicing. In diverse taxa of lower eukaryotes, spliced leader (SL) trans-splicing is the most frequent typ...
