Abstract Background Despite some degeneracy of sequence signals that govern splicing of eukaryotic pre-mRNAs it is an accepted rule that U2-dependent introns exhibit the 3 terminal dinucleotide AG. Intrigued by anecdotal evidence for functional non-AG 3 splice sites we carried out a human genome-wide screen. Results We identified TG dinucleotides functioning as alternative 3 splice sites in 36 human genes. The TG-derived splice variants were experimentally validated with a success rate of 92 . Interestingly ratios of alternative splice variants are tissue-specific for several introns. TG splice sites and their flanking intron sequences are substantially .
