Abstract excerpt
Putative components of the spliceosomal active site include a bulged helix between U2 and U6 snRNAs (U2-U6 helix I) and the adjacent ACAGAG hexanucleotide in U6. We have developed an in vivo, bimolecular randomization-selection method to functionally dissect these elements. Although a portion of U2-U6 helix I resembles the G-binding site of group I introns, the data are inconsistent with an analogous functional...
