Abstract excerpt
The spliceosome is a complex small nuclear (sn)RNA-protein machine that removes introns from pre-mRNAs via two successive phosphoryl transfer reactions. For each splicing event, the spliceosome is assembled de novo on a pre-mRNA substrate and a complex series of assembly steps leads to the active...
