Abstract excerpt
We have cloned and sequenced a gene encoding a yeast homologue of the U1 snRNP 70K protein. The gene, SNP1, encodes a protein which has 30% amino acid identity with the human 70K protein and has a predicted molecular weight of 34 kDa. The yeast and human sequences are more closely related to each other than to other (non-U1) RNA-binding proteins, but diverge considerably in their C-terminal portions. In...
