Plant snRNP Biogenesis: A Perspective from the Nucleolus and Cajal Bodies

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) are protein–RNA complexes composed of specific snRNP-associated proteins along with small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs), which are non-coding RNA molecules abundant in the nucleus.

Polypeptide components of human small nuclear ribonucleoproteins. [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1983
Small nuclear RNA molecules (snRNAs) are associated with polypeptides in vivo, forming small nuclear ribonucleoprotein complexes (snRNPs). These snRNP complexes are targets for certain autoimmune antisera. Antisera of the type anti-Sm precipitate (and therefore define) a class including U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6 snRNAs, whereas antisera of the anti-RNP ...

Molecular determinants that govern scaRNA processing by Drosha/DGCR8

open access: yesBiology Open, 2020
The Cajal body (CB) is a subnuclear domain that participates in the biogenesis of many different types of ribonucleoproteins (RNPs), including small nuclear RNPs (snRNPs), small Cajal body-specific RNPs (scaRNPs) and telomerase.

Small nuclear ribonucleoproteins and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins in the amphibian germinal vesicle: loops, spheres, and snurposomes. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of cell biology, 1991
We have examined the distribution of snRNPs in the germinal vesicle (GV) of frogs and salamanders by immunofluorescent staining and in situ nucleic acid hybridization. The major snRNAs involved in pre-mRNA splicing (U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6) occur together in nearly all loops of the lampbrush chromosomes, and in hundreds to thousands of small granules (1-

Presence of autoantibodies against HeLa small nuclear ribonucleoproteins in chagasic and non-chagasic cardiac patients

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2004
We detected anti-human small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) autoantibodies in chagasic patients by different immunological methods using HeLa snRNPs.

In vitro RNase and nucleic acid binding activities implicate coilin in U snRNA processing.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Coilin is known as the marker protein for Cajal bodies (CBs), subnuclear domains important for the biogenesis of small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) which function in pre-mRNA splicing.

The Small-Molecule Flunarizine in Spinal Muscular Atrophy Patient Fibroblasts Impacts on the Gemin Components of the SMN Complex and TDP43, an RNA-Binding Protein Relevant to Motor Neuron Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2020
The motor neurodegenerative disease spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by alterations of the survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene involved in RNA metabolism.

WRAP53 is essential for Cajal body formation and for targeting the survival of motor neuron complex to Cajal bodies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2010
The WRAP53 gene gives rise to a p53 antisense transcript that regulates p53. This gene also encodes a protein that directs small Cajal body-specific RNAs to Cajal bodies.

Coilin association with Box C/D scaRNA suggests a direct role for the Cajal body marker protein in scaRNP biogenesis

open access: yesBiology Open, 2014
Spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) are enriched in the Cajal body (CB). Guide RNAs, known as small Cajal body-specific RNAs (scaRNAs), direct modification of the small nuclear RNA (snRNA) component of the snRNP.

Regulation of RNA Splicing: Aberrant Splicing Regulation and Therapeutic Targets in Cancer

open access: yesCells, 2021
RNA splicing is a critical step in the maturation of precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) by removing introns and exons. The combination of inclusion and exclusion of introns and exons in pre-mRNA can generate vast diversity in mature mRNA from a limited number of ...
