Multiple splicing factors are released from endogenous complexes during in vitro pre-mRNA splicing [PDF]
Pre-mRNA splicing occurs in a macromolecular complex called the spliceosome. Efforts to isolate spliceosomes from in vitro splicing reactions have been hampered by the presence of endogenous complexes that copurify with de novo spliceosomes formed on ...

In vivo kinetics of U4/U6·U5 tri-snRNP formation in Cajal bodies
The U4/U6·U5 tri-small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (tri-snRNP) is an essential pre-mRNA splicing factor, which is assembled in a stepwise manner before each round of splicing. It was previously shown that the tri-snRNP is formed in Cajal bodies (CBs), but little is known about the dynamics of this process. Here we created a mathematical model of

Different telomere functions show distinct dependence on Rap1 protein levels revealed by analyses of pre‐mRNA splicing mutants. ABSTRACT Telomeres perform multiple functions to maintain genome stability, including telomere length regulation, chromosome end protection, and meiotic chromosome dynamics.

To cope with environmental stresses, plants have developed various stress tolerance mechanisms that involve the induction of many stress responsive genes through stress-specific and common signaling pathways. Stress-specific/common transcription factors,

Immunoaffinity purification of a [U4/U6.U5] tri-snRNP from human cells. [PDF]
We describe the isolation and biochemical characterization of [U4/U6.U5] tri-snRNP complexes from HeLa cells under nondenaturing conditions using a monoclonal antibody reacting with the U5-specific 100-kD protein. We show that the [U4/U6.U5] complex contains five previously unobserved proteins with molecular masses of 90, 60, 27, 20, and 15.5 kD, in ...

Default mode network (DMN) consists, in part, of the frontal (FC), precuneus (PreC), and posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), which plays a critical role in episodic memory and retrieval of autobiographical memories, displays spatiotemporal differences in the onset of amyloid and hypometabolism that reflects tau neurodegeneration and loss of connectivity ...

Mutational screening of splicing factor genes in cases with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa [PDF]
Purpose Mutations in genes encoding proteins from the tri-snRNP complex of the spliceosome account for more than 12% of cases of autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa (adRP).

Transcriptional regulation of PRPF31 gene expression by MSR1 repeat elements causes incomplete penetrance in retinitis pigmentosa. [PDF]
PRPF31-associated retinitis pigmentosa presents a fascinating enigma: some mutation carriers are blind, while others are asymptomatic. We identify the major molecular cause of this incomplete penetrance through three cardinal features: (1) there is ...

Cryo-EM structure of the yeast U4/U6.U5 tri-snRNP at 3.7 Å resolution [PDF]
U4/U6.U5 tri-snRNP represents a substantial part of the spliceosome before activation. A cryo-electron microscopy structure of Saccharomyces cerevisiae U4/U6.U5 tri-snRNP at 3.7 Å resolution led to an essentially complete atomic model comprising 30 proteins plus U4/U6 and U5 small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs).

Alternative Splicing Regulation in Metabolic Disorders
ABSTRACT Alternative splicing (AS) is a fundamental mechanism for enhancing transcriptome diversity and regulating gene expression, crucial for various cellular processes and the development of complex traits. This review examines the role of AS in metabolic disorders, including obesity, weight loss, dyslipidemias, and metabolic syndrome.
