Small nuclear RNA transcription and ribonucleoprotein assembly in early Xenopus development. [PDF]
The Xenopus egg and embryo, throughout the transcriptionally inactive early cleavage period, were found to contain a store of approximately 8 X 10(8) molecules of the small nuclear RNA (snRNA) U1, sufficient for 4,000-8,000 nuclei. In addition, when transcription is activated at the twelfth cleavage (4,000 cell-stage), the snRNAs U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6

SNUPN deficiency causes a recessive muscular dystrophy due to RNA mis-splicing and ECM dysregulation
SNURPORTIN-1, encoded by SNUPN, plays a central role in the nuclear import of spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoproteins. However, its physiological function remains unexplored.

Annexin, a Protein for All Seasons: From Calcium Dependent Membrane Metabolism to RNA Recognition
Annexins are an important protein family traditionally well known to bind to phospholipids and to interact with various proteins in a calcium dependent way. More recently, it has been established that a feature common to the family is also to bind to RNA having a role in translation. In bies70019 article, Vedeler et al.

Modulation of alternative splicing by expression of small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide N [PDF]
Alternative splicing of pre‐mRNA, catalyzed by small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), plays an important role in proteome complexity and the modulation of cellular functions. snRNP polypeptide N (SmN), is tissue‐specifically expressed, where it replaces snRNP polypeptide B (SmB)/B′ in the Sm core assembly of snRNPs. Recent studies have demonstrated

The most common types of modification in human rRNA are pseudouridylation and 2′-O ribose methylation. These modifications are performed by small nucleolar ribonucleoproteins (snoRNPs) which contain a guide RNA (snoRNA) that base pairs at specific sites ...

Trimethylguanosine nucleoside inhibits cross-linking between snurportin 1 and m3G-capped U1 snRNA [PDF]
Macromolecular nuclear import is an energy-and signal-dependent process. The best characterized type of nuclear import consists of proteins carrying the classical NLS that is mediated by the heterodimeric receptor importin α/β. Spliceosomal snRNPs U1, U2,

A novel strategy for nuclear gene delivery in microalgae using a cell‐penetrating peptide (CPP) and nuclear localization signal (NLS) is described. The authors developed a triple nanocomplex of CPP, plasmid DNA, and SV40 NLS to enhance nuclear delivery in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.

Aggregation Properties of the Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein U1-70K in Alzheimer Disease [PDF]
Recent evidence indicates that U1-70K and other U1 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins are Sarkosyl-insoluble and associate with Tau neurofibrillary tangles selectively in Alzheimer disease (AD). Currently, the mechanisms underlying the conversion of soluble nuclear U1 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins into insoluble cytoplasmic aggregates remain elusive ...
