Abstract excerpt

The small nuclear RNA (snRNA) components of the spliceosome have been proposed to catalyze the excision of introns from nuclear pre-mRNAs. If this hypothesis is correct, then the snRNA components of the spliceosome may interact directly with the reactive groups of pre-mRNA substrates. To explore...
