title: Exo-endo trans splicing: a new way to link.
abstract: In addition to canonical cis splicing, which joins exons from a single pre-mRNA, various forms of trans splicing have been described, whereby two separate precursor transcripts are linked with each other. A new study by Hu et al. in Cell Research characterizes a novel and unusual splicing variation, called exo-endo trans splicing.
