• It forms the U5 snRNP (small nuclear ribonucleoprotein) by associating with several proteins including Prp8 - the largest and most conserved protein in the spliceosome, Brr2 - a helicase required for spliceosome activation, Snu114, and the 7 Sm proteins. (wikipedia.org)
  • U5 snRNA is a small nuclear RNA (snRNA) that participates in RNA splicing as a component of the spliceosome. (wikipedia.org)
  • The EFTUD2 gene mutations that cause MFDM result in the production of little or no functional enzyme from one copy of the gene in each cell. (medlineplus.gov)
  • U5 snRNA is a small nuclear RNA (snRNA) that participates in RNA splicing as a component of the spliceosome. (wikipedia.org)
  • U5 snRNA forms a coaxially-stacked series of helices that project into the active site of the spliceosome. (wikipedia.org)
  • RNA polymerase II (RNAPII) transcribes small nuclear RNA (snRNA) genes in close proximity to Cajal bodies, subnuclear compartments that depend on the SUMO isopeptidase USPL1 for their assembly. (bvsalud.org)
  • We show here that overexpression of USPL1 as well as of another nuclear SUMO isopeptidase, SENP6, alters snRNA 3'-end cleavage, a process carried out by the Integrator complex. (bvsalud.org)
  • It forms the U5 snRNP (small nuclear ribonucleoprotein) by associating with several proteins including Prp8 - the largest and most conserved protein in the spliceosome, Brr2 - a helicase required for spliceosome activation, Snu114, and the 7 Sm proteins. (wikipedia.org)
  • Pre-mRNA splicing is catalyzed by the spliceosome, a multi-megadalton ribonucleoprotein machine. (bvsalud.org)
  • A 35-residue fragment of the ATPase/helicase Prp22 latches onto Prp8, and the quaternary exon junction complex (EJC) recognizes upstream 5'-exon sequences and associates with Cwc22 and the GTPase Snu114 . (nih.gov)
