Interactions of the yeast SF3b splicing factor.
The U2 snRNP promotes prespliceosome assembly through interactions that minimally involve the branchpoint binding protein, Mud2p, and the pre-mRNA. We previously showed that seven proteins copurify with the yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) SF3b U2 subcomplex that associates with the pre-mRNA branchpoint region: Rse1p, Hsh155p, Hsh49p, Cus1p, and Rds3p and unidentified subunits p10 and p17. Here...
متن کاملConservation of structure and subunit interactions in yeast homologues of splicing factor 3b (SF3b) subunits.
Human SAP 49, a subunit of the multimeric splicing factor 3b (SF3b), contains two RNA recognition motifs (RRMs) and binds another SF3b subunit called SAP 145, whose yeast homologue is CUS1. Here we show that the predicted yeast open reading frame YOR319w (HSH49) encodes an essential yeast splicing factor. Using bacterially expressed proteins, we find that yeast HSH49 binds CUS1. Mutations that ...
متن کاملProteomic analysis identifies a new complex required for nuclear pre-mRNA retention and splicing.
Using the proteomic tandem affinity purification (TAP) method, we have purified the Saccharomyces cerevisie U2 snRNP-associated splicing factors SF3a and SF3b. While SF3a purification revealed only the expected subunits Prp9p, Prp11p and Prp21p, yeast SF3b was found to contain only six subunits, including previously known components (Rse1p, Hsh155p, Cus1p, Hsh49p), the recently identified Rds3p...
متن کاملInvariant U2 RNA sequences bordering the branchpoint recognition region are essential for interaction with yeast SF3a and SF3b subunits.
U2 small nuclear RNA (snRNA) contains a sequence (GUAGUA) that pairs with the intron branchpoint during splicing. This sequence is contained within a longer invariant sequence of unknown secondary structure and function that extends between U2 and I and stem IIa. A part of this region has been proposed to pair with U6 in a structure called helix III. We made mutations to test the function of th...
متن کاملEvidence that sequence-independent binding of highly conserved U2 snRNP proteins upstream of the branch site is required for assembly of spliceosomal complex A.
A critical step in the pre-mRNA splicing reaction is the stable binding of U2 snRNP to the branchpoint sequence (BPS) to form the A complex. The multimeric U2 snRNP protein complexes SF3a and SF3b are required for A complex assembly, but their specific roles in this process are not known. Saccharomyces cerevisiae homologs of all of the SF3a, but none of the SF3b, subunits have been identified. ...
