TGS1 controls snRNA 3’ end processing, prevents neurodegeneration and ameliorates <i>SMN</i> -dependent neurological phenotypes in vivo

Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Trimethylguanosine synthase 1 (TGS1) is a highly conserved enzyme that converts the 5’ mono-methylguanosine cap of snRNAs to a trimethylguanosine cap. Here, we show that loss of TGS1 in C. elegans, D. melanogaster and D. rerio results in neurological phenotypes similar to those caused by Survival Motor Neuron (SMN) deficiency. Importantly, expression of human TGS1 ameliorates the SMN -depende...
