What is the primary function of snRNPs in splicing?
To bind to U1,U2,U4,U5,U6
Which site does the 2'-OH of the branch site A attack during splicing?
Splice donor site

Phosphodiester bond
Test your knowledge on the mechanism of splicing with this quiz! Learn about how the primary transcript combines with snRNPs to form a spliceosome, and how the 2'-OH of the branch site A attacks the 5'-p at the splice donor site of the intron to form a lariat. Discover how snRNPs act as slicing factors, binding to U1,U... and much more! This quiz is perfect for anyone looking to expand their understanding of the fascinating process of sp
