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.

Turning on the Spliceosome [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2012 The spliceosome is the complex macromolecular machine responsible for removing introns from pre-mRNAs. The processes of spliceosome assembly and activation rely on the coordinated interactions of many dozens of spliceosome components to identify splice sites in a pre-mRNA, build a spliceosome, and activate the spliceosome for catalysis by formation of ...

Which Kind of Causal Specificity Matters Biologically? [PDF]
, 2017 Griffiths et al. (2015) have proposed a quantitative measure of causal specificity and used it to assess various attempts to single out genetic causes as being causally more specific than other cellular mechanisms, for example, alternative splicing ...

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 ...

Localized inhibition of protein phosphatase 1 by NUAK1 promotes spliceosome activity and reveals a MYC-sensitive feedback control of transcription. [PDF]
, 2020 Deregulated expression of MYC induces a dependence on the NUAK1 kinase, but the molecular mechanisms underlying this dependence have not been fully clarified.

The minor spliceosomal protein U11/U12-31K is an RNA chaperone crucial for U12 intron splicing and the development of dicot and monocot plants. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 U12 intron-specific spliceosomes contain U11 and U12 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins and mediate the removal of U12 introns from precursor-mRNAs. Among the several proteins unique to the U12-type spliceosomes, an Arabidopsis thaliana AtU11/U12-31K ...

Roles of alternative splicing in infectious diseases: from hosts, pathogens to their interactions
Chinese Medical Journal, 2023 . Alternative splicing (AS) is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism that removes introns and ligates exons to generate mature messenger RNAs (mRNAs), extremely improving the richness of transcriptome and proteome. Both mammal hosts and pathogens require
