Abstract

Alternative splicing is an important mechanism that enhances protein functional diversity. To date, our understanding of alternative splicing variants has been based on mRNA transcript data, but due to the difficulty in predicting protein structures, protein tertiary structures have been largely unexplored. However, with the release of AlphaFold, which predicts three-dimensional models of proteins, this challenge is rapidly being overcome. Here, we present a dataset of 315 predicted structures of abnormal isoforms in 18 uveal melanoma patients based on second- and third-generation transcriptome-sequencing data. This information comprises a high-quality set of structural data on recurrent aberrant isoforms that can be used in multiple types of studies, from those aimed at revealing potential therapeutic targets to those aimed at recognizing of cancer neoantigens at the atomic level.
