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 is a ...
Aided by two molecular control factors, the spliceosome rejects pre-mRNA that could be incorrectly spliced. While GPATCH1 detects the defective pre-mRNA, DHX35 removes it from the spliceosome, which ...
Researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) have created the first blueprint of the human spliceosome, the complex molecular machine that edits genetic messages transcribed from DNA, ...
