Abstract

Coherent splicing networks arise from many discrete splicing decisions regulated in unison. Here, we examine the properties of robust, context-specific splicing networks. We propose that a subset of key splicing regulators, or "master splicing factors," respond to environmental cues to establish and maintain tissue transcriptomes during development.
