High impact information on SPBC8D2.09c

  • The U2 snRNP component SAP 155 contacts pre-mRNA on both sides of the branch site early in spliceosome assembly and is therefore positioned near or at the spliceosome catalytic center [1].
  • Extracts of S.pombe contain high levels of the spliceosome-like U2/5/6 tri-snRNP, which dissociates into mono-snRNPs in the presence of ATP, and supports binding of U2 snRNP to the 3' end of introns, yielding a weak ATP-independent E complex and the stable ATP-dependent complex A [2].
  • Together, our data are consistent with a model in which U2AF binds to the pyrimidine tract in the E complex and then interacts with SAP 155 to recruit U2 snRNP to the BPS [3].
 

Associations of SPBC8D2.09c with chemical compounds

  • The splicing factor U2AF binds to the pyrimidine tract at the 3' splice site in the earliest spliceosomal complex, E, and is essential for U2 snRNP binding in the spliceosomal complex A [3].
