Direct Interactions between Pre-mRNA and Six U2 Small Nuclear Ribonucleoproteins during Spliceosome Assembly [PDF]
Highly purified mammalian spliceosomal complex B contains more than 30 specific protein components. We have carried out UV cross-linking studies to determine which of these components directly contacts pre-mRNA in purified prespliceosomal and spliceosomal complexes.

Mutations in the splicing machinery have been implicated in a number of human diseases. Most notably, the U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) component SF3b1 has been found to be frequently mutated in blood cancers such as myelodysplastic ...

Ser/Arg-rich Protein-mediated Communication between U1 and U2 Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein Particles [PDF]
Previous work demonstrated that U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (snRNP), bound to a downstream 5' splice site, can positively influence utilization of an upstream 3' splice site via exon definition in both trans- and cis-splicing systems. Although exon definition results in the enhancement of splicing of an upstream intron, the nature of ...

Multiple Forms of the U2 Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein Auxiliary Factor U2AF Subunits Expressed in Higher Plants [PDF]
Requirements for intron recognition during pre-mRNA splicing in plants differ from those in vertebrates and yeast. Plant introns contain neither conserved branch points nor distinct 3' splice site-proximal polypyrimidine tracts characteristic of the yeast and vertebrate introns, respectively. However, they are strongly enriched in U residues throughout

Northern blot analysis of HeLa cell nuclear extract following electrophoresis in nondenaturing gels revealed that a small proportion of U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) displays a low mobility, in confirmation of previous reports. This low mobility form of U2 snRNP (termed LMC, for low mobility complex) also formed in vitro when U2 snRNP ...

Arabidopsis U2AF65 Regulates Flowering Time and the Growth of Pollen Tubes
During pre-mRNA splicing, U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein auxiliary factor 65 (U2AF65) interacts with U2AF35 and splicing factor 1 (SF1), allowing for the recognition of the 3′-splice site by the ternary complex.

Autoantibodies directed against the U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) have been found in the serum of a patient with scleroderma-polymyositis overlap syndrome. This specificity, called anti-(U2)-RNP, is distinct from all previously described autoantibodies, including those that precipitate related snRNPs: anti-Sm antibodies, which react with ...

Human small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) containing U1 and U2 snRNAs have been isolated from cultured cells by nonimmunological methods. The U1 snRNP population remained immunoprecipitable by systemic lupus erythematosis anti-RNP and anti-Sm antibodies throughout fractionation and contained polypeptides of molecular weights corresponding to ...

The U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle as an autoantigen. Analysis with sera from patients with overlap syndromes. [PDF]
We identified eight patients whose sera contained autoantibodies to the U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP), an RNA protein particle involved in the splicing of newly transcribed messenger RNA. Each of these patients had an overlap syndrome that included features of either systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), scleroderma, and/or polymyositis.
