Abstract excerpt
During the early events of pre-mRNA splicing, intronic cis-acting sequences are recognized and interact through a network of RNA-RNA, RNA-protein, and protein-protein contacts. Recently, we identified a branchpoint sequence binding protein in yeast (BBP). The mammalian ortholog (mBBP/SF1) also binds specifically to branchpoint sequences and interacts with the well studied mammalian splicing factor U2AF65, which...
