What constitutes an ‘alternative TSS’?
. . . any
. . . any
Case 1
This includes:
First exon shows novel
splice structure (likely real)
. . . any
. . . any
Condition: x>100 bp
Case 2
(optional;
default: not included *)
•
•
•
. . . any
. . . any
First exon is significant
variation on existing exon
(but may also be artifact)
Genes with a single TSS: by default, longest form included for multi-exon transcripts only
Case 2 events account for ~40% of the cases (genes with a single TSS not included)
Event “signature” is the in-boundary of the first exon (see below). Therefore, different events may
lead to the same transcription start site in genomic coordinates:
Event 1001
Event 1002
. . . any
Different events, same genomic TSS
. . . any

What constitutes a ‘skipped’ (cassette) exon?
(X)SKIP
‘on’
‘off’

(X)MSKIP
‘on’

Transfrags must belong to the same gene, have the same orientation
Both transfrags must contain >=3 exons
X – exact boundary match for SKIP, approximate (simple exon overlap) for XSKIP
- event “pattern” or “signature” (column 7)
