Identification of testis-specific Mga variant mRNA. (A) Prediction scores as the splice acceptor and donor of Mga pre-mRNA from SpliceAI deep learning. Scores as the splice acceptor and donor are shown as green and blue bars, respectively, whose height is proportional to the score level. In addition to known exons, SpliceAI indicated a set of high scores for the splice acceptor and donor within the regions of the 15th and 18th introns of the Mga gene marked with blue and red asterisks, respectively. The latter region is enlarged to provide actual scores from SpliceAI. (B) qPCR analyses of Mga SV (upper panel) and canonical Mga (lower panel) mRNAs in total RNAs from various tissues. Values obtained from ESCs were arbitrarily set to one for both Mga mRNA species. Data represents the mean ± standard deviation of three independent experiments. The Student’s t-test was conducted to examine statistical significance. ***P < 0.001.
