Spliceosome Database: a tool for tracking components of the spliceosome [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2012 The spliceosome is the extremely complex macromolecular machine responsible for pre-mRNA splicing. It assembles from five U-rich small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) and over 200 proteins in a highly dynamic fashion. One important challenge to studying the spliceosome is simply keeping track of all these proteins, a situation further complicated by the variety ...

BioEssays, 1993 AbstractThe spliceosome is a large RNA‐protein complex that catalyses the removal of introns from nuclear pre‐mRNA. A wide range of biochemical and genetical studies shows that the spliceosome comprises three major RNA‐protein subunits, the U1, U2 and [U4/U6.U5] small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles (snRNPs), and an additional group of non‐snRNP ...

Neurodegenerative spliceosomopathies [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental BiologySpliceosomal syndromes are a group of disorders caused by pathogenic variants in core spliceosomal RNAs or proteins, leading to defective pre-mRNA splicing and tissue-specific disease vulnerability. Although the spliceosome is ubiquitously expressed, its

Molecular basis for the activation of human spliceosome
Nature CommunicationsThe spliceosome executes pre-mRNA splicing through four sequential stages: assembly, activation, catalysis, and disassembly. Activation of the spliceosome, namely remodeling of the pre-catalytic spliceosome (B complex) into the activated spliceosome ...

psiCLIP reveals dynamic RNA binding by DEAH-box helicases before and after exon ligation
Nature Communications, 2021 ATP-dependent helicases remodel the spliceosome and proofread splice site recognition. A new method – Purified Spliceosome iCLIP (psiCLIP) – probes protein-RNA interactions in defined spliceosome complexes to reveal how the helicases Prp16 and Prp22 ...

Spliceosomal immunophilins [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 2008 The spliceosome is a dynamic, macromolecular complex, which removes non‐protein‐coding introns from pre‐mRNA to form mature mRNA in a process known as splicing. This ribonucleoprotein assembly is comprised of five uridine‐rich small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) as well as over 300 proteins.

Spliceosomal intronogenesis [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2016 Significance Eukaryotic transcripts contain spliceosomal introns that need to be removed by pre-mRNA splicing. Although several models have been proposed to identify the mechanism of intron gain over the evolution of eukaryotes, they remain models due to a lack of experimental validation.

Therapeutic potential of CDK11 in cancer
Clinical and Translational Medicine, 2023 Human cyclin‐dependent kinases (CDKs) direct the progression of the cell cycle and transcription. They are deregulated in tumours, and despite their involvement in the regulation of basic cellular processes, many CDKs are promising targets for cancer ...

Spliceosomal snRNA Epitranscriptomics [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) are critical components of the spliceosome that catalyze the splicing of pre-mRNA. snRNAs are each complexed with many proteins to form RNA-protein complexes, termed as small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), in the cell nucleus. snRNPs participate in pre-mRNA splicing by recognizing the critical sequence elements present
