Preferred Label : Spliceosome Pathway;
NCIt related terms : Spliceosome;
Alternative definition : KEGG: After transcription, eukaryotic mRNA precursors contain protein-coding exons
and noncoding introns. In the following splicing, introns are excised and exons are
joined by a macromolecular complex, the spliceosome. The standard spliceosome is made
up of five small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6 snRNPs,
and several spliceosome-associated proteins (SAPs). Spliceosomes are not a simple
stable complex, but a dynamic family of particles that assemble on the mRNA precursor
and help fold it into a conformation that allows transesterification to proceed. Various
spliceosome forms (e.g. A-, B- and C-complexes) have been identified.;
