Structure of TauPTM6 and TauPTM9 and resulting trans-spliced products. The coding sequence of TauPTM6 and TauPTM9 consists of exons 10–13 or exons 11–13, respectively, followed by a 24 nt FLAG epitope sequence. The trans-splicing domain of the PTMs comprises a 125 nt binding domain (BD) complementary to the 3′ end of tau intron 9 as well as a strong conserved yeast branch point sequence (BP), a 26 nt polypyrimidine tract (PPT), an AG acceptor site and a spacer sequence separating the binding domain and the branch point. Arrows indicate the locations of the PCR primers used to detect cis- and trans-splicing events.
