Abstract. More than ninety percent of genes in Homo Sapience are reported to exist as discontinuous segments of coding regions called as ‘Exons’ and are separated by intervening non-coding regions, called “Introns”. During the splicing mechanism, the non-coding regions got removed and coding regions are joined together for producing the precursor messenger RNA. The site of these Exon-Intron splicing is called Splice Site. The anomalies caused due to genetic mutation in spice site during the processing of precursor m-RNA into mature m-RNA causes several genetic diseases like Cancer, Dementia, Epilepsy, Hematological Disorders, Parathyroid Deficiency etc. It is estimated that as many as 50% of disease-causing mutations affect splicing. The present invention describes the design of digital signal processing-based approach to detect these Splicing Site. A successful identification of the splice site will help in finding the mutations hence can be used as an inference tool for predicting genetic disease.

Keywords: biomedical signal processing, coding regions, splicing, statistic inference.
