Abstract excerpt
U1 small nuclear RNA plays an important role in early stages of intron recognition and spliceosome assembly. The 5' splice site of the premessenger RNA base-pairs with the 5' end of U1; however, that interaction appears to be replaced by U5 and U6 at later stages of the splicing process. It has not been established when this transition occurs nor what factors are required for the transition. The PRP2 gene of...
