Spliceosome

The spliceosome is a large macromolecular ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex responsible for catalyzing pre-mRNA splicing (removal of introns from exons) and is composed of five small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs; U1-U2 and U4-U6) and as many as 300 distinct proteins. In turn, snRNPs are build up of a ring of seven Sm proteins and a set of specific proteins (U1A, U1C and U1-70K). The survival motor neuron (SMN) protein complex, which includes SMN seven Gemin proteins (Gemin2–Gemin8) and unrip (also known as STRAP), is thought to regulate the entire cytoplasmic phase of the snRNP cycle[1],[2]
