X Abstract

Pre-mRNA splicing is catalyzed by two unique spliceosomes, designated U2- or U12-dependent. In contrast to the well-characterized U2-dependent spliceosome, much remains to be learned about the less abundant U12-type spliceosome. This review focuses on recent advances in elucidating the structure and function of the minor U12-dependent spliceosome. Interesting similarities and differences between the U12- and U2-dependent spliceosomes are also highlighted.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
