The vast majority of multi-exon genes in humans undergo alternative splicing, which greatly increases the functional diversity of protein species. Predicting functions at the isoform level is essential to further our understanding of developmental abnormalities and cancers, which frequently exhibit aberrant splicing and dysregulation of isoform expression. However, determination of isoform function is very difficult, and efforts to predict isoform function have been limited in the functional genomics field. Now deep sequencing of RNA provides an unprecedented amount of expression data at the transcript level. We describe here emerging computational approaches that integrate such large-scale RNA-seq data for predicting functions of alternatively spliced isoforms, and we discuss their applications in developmental and cancer biology. We outline future directions for isoform function prediction, emphasizing the need for heterogeneous genomic data integration and tissue-specific, dynamic isoform-level network modeling, which will allow the field to realize its full potential.
