PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2021 Hsp90 gene of G. lamblia has a split nature comprising two ORFs separated by 777 kb on chromosome 5. The ORFs of the split gene on chromosome 5 undergo transcription to generate independent pre-mRNAs that join by a unique trans-splicing reaction that ...

Structure of spliceosomal ribonucleoproteins [PDF]
F1000 Biology Reports, 2010 Splicing of the precursors of eukaryotic mRNA and some non-coding RNAs is catalyzed by the 'spliceosome', which comprises five RNA-protein complexes (small nuclear ribonucleoproteins, or snRNPs) that assemble in an ordered manner onto precursor-mRNAs. Much progress has been made in determining the gross morphology of spliceosomal assembly intermediates.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.In this study, the orange‐muscle giant abalone (Haliotis gigantea) is used as a model to identify a non‐coding SNP that disrupts the interaction between ITGA8 pre‐mRNA and the splicing factor ILF2, leading to altered ITGA8 splicing. These splicing changes promote carotenoid accumulation in abalone muscle through the regulation of tissue remodeling ...

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 ...

Prenatal Evaluation of RNU4‐2 Variants in Fetuses With Central Nervous System Anomalies
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Fetal central nervous system (CNS) anomalies are among the most common congenital malformations, yet the overall prenatal diagnostic yield of current genetic testing remains below 40%. Variants in RNU4‐2, a non‐coding gene encoding the U4 small nuclear RNA (snRNA), have recently been linked to a novel highly recurrent dominant ...

Cwc24p is a general Saccharomyces cerevisiae splicing factor required for the stable U2 snRNP binding to primary transcripts. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Splicing of primary transcripts is an essential process for the control of gene expression. Specific conserved sequences in premature transcripts are important to recruit the spliceosome machinery.

Spliceosome Structure and Function [PDF]
Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2010 Pre-mRNA splicing is catalyzed by the spliceosome, a multimegadalton ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex comprised of five snRNPs and numerous proteins. Intricate RNA-RNA and RNP networks, which serve to align the reactive groups of the pre-mRNA for catalysis, are formed and repeatedly rearranged during spliceosome assembly and catalysis.

A comprehensive proteome and phosphoproteome atlas across nine organs of the Chinese hamster
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.This study presents the first comprehensive proteome and phosphoproteome atlas of the Chinese hamster across nine organs (heart, liver, lung, kidney, spleen, cerebral cortex, skeletal muscle, stomach, and testis or ovary). A total of 14 219 proteins were identified in the proteome, with 11 828 phosphorylated proteins and 47 122 phosphorylation sites ...

Dysregulation of U12‐Type Splicing in Lupus Neutrophils
Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective Neutrophil dysfunction is a hallmark of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), but its molecular basis remains unclear. This study explores transcriptional and posttranscriptional changes in low‐density granulocytes (LDGs), a proinflammatory neutrophil subset expanded in SLE, focusing on NADPH oxidase (Nox) function and minor intron splicing ...

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2012 Background: Some yeast splicing factors, e.g. Bud31 in Cef1p subcomplex, are nonessential for cell viability. Results: Bud31 occurs in precatalytic (B) and catalytic spliceosomes and stabilizes protein interactions with the pre-mRNA; its absence affects ...
