Updated chapter added
Pre-mRNA splicing and its regulation by Alan Zahler has just been added to the Molecular biology section.
This chapter updates the review of constitutive splicing factors, identification of alternatively spliced genes,
and regulation of alternative splicing found in it's predecessor, Alternative splicing in C. elegans.
It also and adds discussions on the coupling of alternative splicing to nonsense-mediated decay and the progress
toward identifying the alternative splicing code in C. elegans.
