Abstract excerpt
A short 5' splice site RNA oligonucleotide (5'SS RNA oligo) undergoes both steps of splicing when a second RNA containing the 3' splice site region (3'SS RNA) is added in trans. This trans-splicing reaction displays the same 5' and 3' splice site sequence requirements as cis-splicing of full-length pre-mRNA. The analysis of RNA-snRNP complexes formed on each of the two splice site RNAs is consistent with the...
