Recent studies have implicated the dying cell as a potential reservoir of modified autoantigens that might initiate and drive systemic autoimmunity in susceptible hosts. The spliceosomal Sm proteins ...
This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles (snRNPs) are required for pre-mRNA splicing throughout the nucleoplasm, yet snRNPs also ...
In human cells, only a small proportion of the information written in genes is used to produce proteins. How does the cell select this information? A large molecular machine called the spliceosome ...
Images of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana. In the plant on the right, the activity of the protein-RNA complex "U1 snRNP" was artificially reduced. The plants are 21 days old. Plants have a ...
In multicellular organisms, the earliest products of transcription, called pre-mRNAs, undergo a molecular makeover before shipping out to the cytoplasm, where the modified mRNAs spell out the recipe ...
Researchers have puzzled over the neurodegenerative disorder Alzheimer's disease for decades, but treatments to stop or reverse the disease's effects on the brain have remained elusive. Scientists at ...
