Abstract excerpt
The driving forces behind the many RNA conformational changes occurring in the spliceosome are not well understood. Here we characterize an evolutionarily conserved human U5 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) protein (U5-116kD) that is strikingly homologous to the ribosomal elongation factor EF-2 (ribosomal translocase). A 114 kDa protein (Snu114p) homologous to U5-116kD was identified in Saccharomyces...
