A role for branchpoints in splicing in vivo.
Nature - 1 Jan 2000
Rautmann G, Breathnach R
Abstract excerpt
The nucleotides immediately surrounding intron/exon junctions of genes transcribed by RNA polymerase B can be derived from 'consensus' sequences for donor and acceptor splice sites by only a few base changes. Studies in vivo have underlined the importance of these junction nucleotides for splicing. In higher eukaryotes, no evidence has been found for specific internal intron sequences involved in splicing....
