Functional characterisation of splicing factor Slu7 in Cryptococcus neoformans – roles in cell cycle, constitutive and alternate splicing
Fungal genomes, including in pathogenic yeasts like Cryptococcus neoformans (Cnn) and Candida albicans are rich with short introns. 99% of Cryptococcus neoformans genes have introns with an average of 5 introns per gene ... -
Probing the Splicing and Enzymatic Function of Fission Yeast Prp16 – A DEAD Box RNA Helicase
Nuclear pre-mRNA splicing occurs at precisely conserved sequence elements at and around the splice sites which result in ligation of exons and release of intron as lariat. The Schizosaccharomyces pombe genome is an apt ...
