Alternative splicing: transcriptional regulatory network in agroforestry
Alternative splicing (AS) in plants plays a key role in regulating the expression of numerous transcripts from a single gene in a regulatory pathway. Variable concentrations of growth regulatory hormones and external stimuli trigger alternative splicing ...

Structure of the activated human minor spliceosome
Atomic structure of the minor spliceosome About 1% of the human genome contains the so-called U12-type introns, which are spliced by the minor spliceosome.

Cryo-electron microscopy has greatly advanced our understanding of how the spliceosome cycles through different conformational states to conduct the chemical reactions that remove introns from pre-mRNA transcripts.

Structural basis of branch site recognition by the human spliceosome
Description Intron recognition in the spotlight Excision of noncoding introns from pre–messenger RNAs is catalyzed by the spliceosome, a large RNA-protein complex that recognizes specific sequences at the exon-intron boundaries (splice sites).

Localized inhibition of protein phosphatase 1 by NUAK1 promotes spliceosome activity and reveals a MYC-sensitive feedback control of transcription. [PDF]
Deregulated expression of MYC induces a dependence on the NUAK1 kinase, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this dependence have not been fully clarified.

Aberrant splicing of U12-type introns is the hallmark of ZRSR2 mutant myelodysplastic syndrome. [PDF]
Somatic mutations in the spliceosome gene ZRSR2-located on the X chromosome-are associated with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS). ZRSR2 is involved in the recognition of 3'-splice site during the early stages of spliceosome assembly; however, its precise ...

USP15 regulates dynamic protein-protein interactions of the spliceosome through deubiquitination of PRP31. [PDF]
Post-translational modifications contribute to the spliceosome dynamics by facilitating the physical rearrangements of the spliceosome. Here, we report USP15, a deubiquitinating enzyme, as a regulator of protein-protein interactions for the spliceosome ...

In Vitro Studies of the Prp9·Prp11·Prp21 Complex Indicate a Pathway for U2 Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein Activation [PDF]
Pre-mRNA splicing takes place on a large ribonucleoprotein particle, the spliceosome which contains the five small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae the mRNA splicing factors, Prp9, Prp11, and Prp21,

The 35S U5 snRNP is generated from the activated spliceosome during In vitro splicing [PDF]
Primary gene transcripts of eukaryotes contain introns, which are removed during processing by splicing machinery. Biochemical studies In vitro have identified a specific pathway in which introns are recognised and spliced out. This occurs by progressive

Chromosomal instability by mutations in the novel minor spliceosome component CENATAC
Aneuploidy is the leading cause of miscarriage and congenital birth defects, and a hallmark of cancer. Despite this strong association with human disease, the genetic causes of aneuploidy remain largely unknown.
