Fig. 4From: Roles and mechanisms of aberrant alternative splicing in melanoma — implications for targeted therapy and immunotherapy resistanceCD44 splicing events. This figure schematically depicts the main linear alternative splicing events of CD44. The full length of the CD44 gene includes 20 exons. The standard CD44 (CD44s) consists of ten constant exons with no variant exons. The variant CD44 (CD44v) has alternative splicing exons deleted or inserted between the N- and C-terminal domains, such as CD44v4-10, CD44v8-10, CD44v3, CD44v6Back to article page
