Description

Ashley A. Powell and co-authors published a 2026 study of how hot and cold conditions change mRNA splicing in turkey muscle cells. Splicing is the editing step that lets one gene produce several protein versions.

The team reanalysed sequencing data from satellite cells, the stem cells of muscle, grown at 33, 38, or 43 degrees Celsius while multiplying or maturing. They catalogued over sixty thousand predicted splicing events across more than five thousand genes. Splicing differed significantly in every temperature comparison, and spliced genes overlapped strongly with genes whose overall activity changed. The catalogue gives poultry researchers a resource for studying how heat stress shapes meat production.
