Some ESRP1/ESRP2 regulated splice events detected in prostate cancer cells.

GeneGene Protein Function ESRP regulation Clinical relevance
ADAM15 Transmembrane glycoprotein involved in cell adhesion Activates inclusion of exon 20 ESRP controls poorer prognosis isoform
MINK1 Serine/threonine kinase Activates inclusion of exon 18 ESRP controls poorer prognosis isoform
MYO1B Motor protein Represses exon 23 ESRP controls poorer prognosis isoform
NUMB Tumour suppressor Activates inclusion of exon 6 NUMB exon 6 shows more skipping in primary prostate tumours
MLPH Rab effector protein Represses exon 9 ESRP controls poorer prognosis isoform
MYH10 Non-muscle actin dependent myosin Represses exon 6 ESRP controls poorer prognosis isoform
RPS24 needed for cell proliferation Represses exon 5 ESRP controls poorer prognosis isoform
TUFT1 adaptation to hypoxia, mesenchymal stem cell function, and neuronal differentiation Activates inclusion of exon 2 ESRP controls poorer prognosis isoform
DOCK7 guanine nucleotide exchange factor Represses inclusion of exon 23 DOCK7 exon 23 shows more skipping in primary prostate tumours
ARFGAP2 ADP Ribosylation Factor GTPase Activating Protein 2 Activates inclusion of exon 8 ARFGAP2 exon 8 shows more inclusion in primary prostate tumours
ENAH cell motility and adhesion Activates inclusion of exon 11A ENAH exon 11 A shows more inclusion in primary prostate tumours
FN1 cell adhesion and maintenance of cell shape Represses exon 25
FLNB Connects cell membrane to actin cytoskeleton Activates inclusion of exon 30 Exon 30 included form in primary prostate tumours correlates with better prognosis
MAP3K7 controls transcription and apoptosis Activates inclusion of exon 12 MAP3K7 genetic deletion leads to poor clinical prognosis

This selection of regulated splice events are taken from Munkley et al. 2019 [30] to illustrate how ESRP1/ESRP2 expression levels could control aspects of prostate cancer biology.
