Abstract excerpt
SF3b1 is an essential component of the U2 snRNP implicated in branch site (BS) recognition and found to be frequently mutated in several human cancers. While recent structures of yeast and human SF3b1 have revealed its molecular architecture, the importance of specific RNA:protein contacts and conformational changes remains largely uncharacterized. Here, we performed mutational analysis of yeast SF3b1, guided by...
