Processed PyMOL session of cryo-em structures, see https://github.com/mmagnus/PyMOL4Spliceosome/releases to learn more about current stage of the project.

The session now is very big and it might slow your computer. We recommend to open it one, remove unnecessary things for your analysis and save it as a new session.

Screen Shot 2019-09-13 at 9 28 20 AM (BTW, the intron here is in black, it's fixed in the version 0.31, now the intron is in gray)

The structures superimposed based on the U6 RNA (if possible) or Prp8.

Colors and chain mapping based on Spliceosome_PyMOL prepared by Eysmont and Magnus, merged with https://github.com/maxewilkinson/Spliceosome-PyMOL-sessions.

Not everything is perfect, expect some updates soon.

Assembly, catalytic activation, and disassembly pathway of the spliceosome. For simplicity, the ordered interactions of the U1, U2, U4/ U6, and U5 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs), but not non-snRNP spliceosomal proteins, are shown. Helicases required for splicing in both yeast and humans are indicated and include the Ski2-like helicase BBR2, the DEAD-box helicases UAP56, PRP5, and PRP28, and the DEAH-box helicases PRP2, PRP16, PRP22, and PRP43. (D) Dynamic network of RNA–RNA interactions in the spliceosomal B and Bact complexes. (E) 3D structure of the catalytic RNA network (in the human C∗ complex), showing the coordination of the catalytic magnesium ions M1 and M2. (F) Dynamic exchange of spliceosomal proteins during splicing. Proteins present in pre-B, B, Bact, C, or C∗ human spliceosomal complexes are indicated by a square, in which blue denotes highly abundant and gray moder- ately abundant proteins. Serine-arginine (SR) dipeptide-rich proteins and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNPs), as well as those present in very low amounts, are not shown. The table summarizes the proteomes of various, recently purified human spliceosomal complexes (Agafonov et al. 2011; De et al. 2015; Boesler et al. 2016; Bertram et al. 2017b), as well as our unpublished work. *Prp38 and Snu23 are associated with the tri-snRNP in S. cerevisiae. (G) Differential pre-organization of yeast nineteen complex (NTC) proteins in humans.
