Spliceosome assembly in yeast.

Abstract

Precursors to mRNA become substrates for splicing by being assembled into a complex multisubunit structure, the spliceosome. To study the assembly of the yeast spliceosome, intermediate complexes were separated by electrophoresis on nondenaturing polyacrylamide gels. Four splicing-dependent complexes, A1, A2-1, A2-2, and B, were observed. The order of assembly of these complexes was determined to be B----A2-1----A1----A2-2. The assembly process can be blocked at complex A1 by addition of 5 mM EDTA or by carrying out the assembly process in heat-inactivated rna2 extracts. The snRNA composition of the complexes was determined by hybridization with probes for five yeast snRNAs. snR14 (U4) was only found in complex A2-1, snR6 (U6) and snR7 (U5) were in complexes A1, A2-1, and A2-2, whereas snR20 (U2) was in all four of the complexes. snR19 (U1) was not present in any of the complexes. Hybridization with these probes was also employed to detect snRNPs present in yeast splicing extracts. We found that snR6, snR7, and snR14 were present together in a large complex. This complex underwent an ATP-dependent dissociation to give snR7 and snR6-snR14 complexes. snR19 and snR20 are present in distinct RNPs but the mobility of these is not affected by ATP. A mechanism for spliceosome assembly is proposed.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
