Abstract

Duplex formation between the branch point-binding region (BBR) of U2 snRNA and the branch point sequence (BPS) in the intron is essential for splicing. Both the BBR and BPS interact with the U2 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP)-associated SF3b complex, which is the target of the anti-tumor drug E7107. We show that E7107 blocks spliceosome assembly by preventing tight binding of U2 snRNP to pre-mRNA. E7107 has no apparent effect on U2 snRNP integrity. Instead, E7107 abolishes an ATP-dependent conformational change in U2 snRNP that exposes the BBR. We conclude that SF3b is required for this remodeling, which exposes the BBR for tight U2 snRNP binding to pre-mRNA.

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.
