The minor spliceosome: Researchers reveal new structural insights into an essential RNA-protein complex
Spliceosomes are large and dynamic RNA-protein complexes. The major spliceosome consists of five subunits, U1, U2, U4, U6, and U5 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles (snRNPs, read "snurps ...

Searching for a wrench to throw into the splicing machine
Furthermore, as with many macromolecular complexes taken out of their cellular environment, in vitro spliceosome activity is not overly efficient and thus assay sensitivity was another challenge.
