Abstract excerpt
The small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles U1, U2, U4/U6 and U5 participate in the removal of introns from pre-messenger RNAs in the nucleus. Three genes encoding U5snRNAs, the RNA moiety of U5snRNPs, have been isolated from maize. As in other plant UsnRNA gene families the three maize U5snRNA genes exhibit sequence variation. Two of the gene variants (MzU5.1 and MzU5.2) are clearly expressed after...
