Format: | Lyophilized powder |
Target: | Pre-mRNA splicing occurs in 2 sequential transesterification steps. PRPF8 is a component of both U2- and U12-dependent spliceosomes, and found to be essential for the catalytic step II in pre-mRNA splicing process. It contains several WD repeats, which function in protein-protein interactions. This protein has a sequence similarity to yeast Prp8 protein. The gene encoding PRPF8 is a candidate gene for autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa.Pre-mRNA splicing occurs in 2 sequential transesterification steps.
