Structural and Functional Insights into Human Nuclear Cyclophilins
The peptidyl prolyl isomerases (PPI) of the cyclophilin type are distributed throughout human cells, including eight found solely in the nucleus. Nuclear cyclophilins are involved in complexes that regulate chromatin modification, transcription, and pre ...

Roles of alternative splicing in infectious diseases: from hosts, pathogens to their interactions
. 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

Spliceosomes are the core host of pre-mRNA splicing, allowing multiple protein isoforms to be produced from a single gene. Herein, we reveal that spliceosomes are more abundant in human pluripotent stem cells (hPSs), including human embryonic stem cells (

Inhibición parcial de dos genes que codifican para proteínas del empalmosoma en Giardia intestinalis
Introducción. Giardia intestinalis es un organismo tempranamente divergente en el que recientemente se demostró la presencia de intrones. La maquinaria responsable de la remoción de intrones en organismos eucariotas superiores es el empalmosoma, el cual ...

Structures of the human spliceosomes before and after release of the ligated exon
Pre-mRNA splicing is executed by the spliceosome, which has eight major functional states each with distinct composition. Five of these eight human spliceosomal complexes, all preceding exon ligation, have been structurally characterized.

SnapShot: Spliceosome Dynamics I
Spliceosomes are multi-megadalton RNA-protein molecular machines that carry out pre-mRNA splicing, that is, the removal of non-coding intervening sequences (introns) from eukaryotic pre-mRNAs and the ligation of neighboring coding regions (exons) to produce mature mRNA for protein biosynthesis on the ribosome.

Cloning and tissue expression of alternative spliceosome in chicken G-protein alpha subunit gene
In order to research deeply the transcription and splicing situations of chicken G-protein alpha subunit gene (GNAS), we used 5´ and 3´ rapid-amplification cDNA end (RACE) technology to clone and sequence the chicken GNAS gene, and used quantitative ...

Therapeutic Targeting of Alternative Splicing: A New Frontier in Cancer Treatment
The ability for cells to harness alternative splicing enables them to diversify their proteome in order to carry out complex biological functions and adapt to external and internal stimuli. The spliceosome is the multiprotein-RNA complex charged with the

Regulation of Prp43-mediated disassembly of spliceosomes by its cofactors Ntr1 and Ntr2
The DEAH-box NTPase Prp43 disassembles spliceosomes in co-operation with the cofactors Ntr1/Spp382 and Ntr2, forming the NTR complex. How Prp43 is regulated by its cofactors to discard selectively only intron-lariat spliceosomes (ILS) and defective ...
