Title: | Promoting spliceosome assembly for therapeutic intent |
Abstract: | RNA splicing, the process by which precursor mRNA (pre-mRNA) is processed to mature mRNA, is catalyzed by the spliceosome. Recently, Chatrikhi et al. identified pharmacologic means to perturb splicing by enhancing the spliceosome's binding to pre-mRNA. This represents a novel chemical target and mechanism for therapeutic modulation of splicing. © 2021 Elsevier Ltd |
