A Block in Mammalian Splicing Occurring after Formation of Large Complexes Containing U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6 Small Nuclear Ribonucleoproteins [PDF]
The assembly of mammalian pre-mRNAs into large 50S to 60S complexes, or spliceosomes, containing small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) leads to the production of splicing intermediates, 5' exon and lariat-3' exon, and the subsequent production of spliced products.

Different telomere functions show distinct dependence on Rap1 protein levels revealed by analyses of pre‐mRNA splicing mutants. ABSTRACT Telomeres perform multiple functions to maintain genome stability, including telomere length regulation, chromosome end protection, and meiotic chromosome dynamics.

Functioning of the Drosophila integral U1/U2 protein Snf independent of U1 and U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles is revealed by snf + gene dose effects [PDF]
Snf, encoded by sans fille , is the Drosophila homolog of mammalian U1A and U2B′′ and is an integral component of U1 and U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles (snRNPs). Surprisingly, changes in the level of this housekeeping protein can specifically affect autoregulatory activity of the RNA-binding protein ...

U1, U2, and U6 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) are associated with large nuclear RNP particles containing transcripts of an amplified gene in vivo. [PDF]
Nuclear ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes that contain intact transcripts of the amplified gene for CAD, the multifunctional protein that initiates UMP synthesis in Syrian hamster cells, have been released from nuclei of Syrian hamster cells as large particulate structures that sediment at the 200S region in a sucrose gradient.

A Prenatal Diagnosis of Verheij Syndrome in a Fetus Harboring a de novo PUF60 Variant
Here, we report the case of a fetus affected by multiple congenital anomalies (MCA) syndrome detected during the second trimester through ultrasound scan, in which a de novo pathogenetic variant in the PUF60 gene (NM_078480.3:c.382_383del; p.Met128ValfsTer11) was identified by trio‐based exome sequencing.

Defective minor spliceosome mRNA processing results in isolated familial growth hormone deficiency [PDF]
The molecular basis of a significant number of cases of isolated growth hormone deficiency remains unknown. We describe three sisters affected with severe isolated growth hormone deficiency and pituitary hypoplasia caused by biallelic mutations in the ...
