Article Synopsis
- The spliceosome is a complex that removes non-coding regions (introns) from precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) to create mature mRNA for protein synthesis.
- U6 small nuclear RNA (snRNA) goes through significant structural changes during spliceosome assembly, aided by proteins Prp24 and Lsm2-8.
- A new structure of U6 snRNP was identified, showing how Lsm2-8 recognizes modified U6 snRNA and how it relates to another protein involved in mRNA degradation, indicating a deeper connection in RNA processing mechanisms.
