Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biomedical research, and specifically relates to the use of human LSM5 gene and related products. Background technique
[0002] LSM5 (LSM5 Homolog, U6 Small Nuclear RNA And MRNA DegradationAssociated; U6 SnRNA-Associated Sm-Like Protein LSm5) is located at 7p14.3, encoding a U6 small nuclear ribonucleic acid-associated Sm-like protein, which can be found in many species , considered to have sequence homology to the Sm protein family (see SNRPD2; MIM 601061). Sm-like proteins contain a 2-domain Sm sequence motif, which consists of 2 domains separated by a variable-length linker that can form a cyclic fold. Sm-like proteins are known to form a stable heteromer of 3-snRNA (U4 / U6-U5), and the heptamer LSM2-8 complex specifically binds to the 3'-terminal U-region of U6 snRNA and participates in the spliceosome Assembly process that plays an important role in the splicing of pre-mRNA.
