Scheme depicting the importance of proper regulation of Tj-TR. In nervous tissue, TR of tj transcript results in a mixture of Tj and Tj-TR isoforms. Abrogation of either isoform results in neural lesions, while a properly regulated balance of isoforms is key to brain health. In the reproductive system, preventing Tj-TR is crucial for reproductive capacity.
