Minor spliceosome
Videos
The minor spliceosome is a ribonucleoprotein complex that catalyses the removal of an atypical class of spliceosomal introns from messenger RNAs in some clades of eukaryotes. This process is called no
A comparison between major and minor splicing mechanisms
U1 and U11 can be folded similarly
U4atac minor spliceosomal RNA is a ncRNA which is an essential component of the minor U12-type spliceosome complex. The U12-type spliceosome is required for removal of the rarer class of eukaryotic in
Minor spliceosome
…main determinants for distinguishing U2- and U12-type introns are 5' splice site and branch site sequences. The minor spliceosome consists of U11, U12, U4atac, and U6atac, together with U5 and an unknown number of non-snRNP proteins. The U11, U12 and U4atac/U6atac snRNPs are functional analogs of the U1, U2…
