The Galej Group at EMBL Grenoble has published new structural insights into minor spliceosome function in the journal Molecular Cell.

A complex molecular machine, the spliceosome, ensures that the genetic information from the genome, after being transcribed into mRNA precursors, is correctly assembled into mature mRNA. Splicing ...

After a decade of work, scientists have completed a molecular model of the human spliceosome, an incredibly complex cellular machine. When an active gene is expressed in a cell, it is transcribed into ...

The spliceosome does the genetic cutting and pasting. It is a complicated complex, made up of four major parts and more than 100 accessory proteins that come together and break apart throughout the ...

Researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) in Barcelona have created the first blueprint of the human spliceosome, the most complex and intricate molecular machine in human biology ...

Detailed map of the spliceosome is being made publicly available to help researchers pinpoint exactly where splicing errors are occurring in a patient's cells.

The spliceosome and Group II introns are believed to share a common ancestor that was responsible for spreading introns throughout the genome, but while Group II introns can splice themselves out of ...

Spinal muscular atrophy is caused by homozygous mutation of SMN1. There are several potential approaches to tweaking SMN2 messenger RNA, to raise SMN protein levels to therapeutic levels. One such ...

Researchers unveil detailed structural insights into the minor spliceosome, shedding light on its role in gene expression and potential disease implications.

The spliceosome does the genetic cutting and pasting. It is a complicated complex, made up of four major parts and more than 100 accessory proteins that come together and break apart throughout ...

In a recent paper, a team of researchers explain how the molecular machine known as the spliceosome begins the process of rearranging gene sequences in RNA splicing.
