Abstract excerpt
Recognition of the 3' splice site in mammalian introns is accomplished by association of the splicing factor U2AF with the precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) in a multiprotein splicing commitment complex. It is well established that this interaction involves binding of the large U2AF65 subunit to sequences upstream of the 3' splice site, but the orientation of the four domains of this protein with respect to the RNA and...
