Penn researchers gain new insights on spinal muscular atrophy

...e inventory of the different types of snRNPs in all cells, what we call the snrnp repertoire or the 'snRNPertoire,'" says Dreyfuss. "When SMN levels are reduced, the biochemical balance needed to make the snrnp complexes for splicing RNA is impaired." The Dreyfuss lab looked at redu...

A new gene silencing platform -- silence is golden

...ration step of polyA tail addition in a gene specific manner. Further, the domains of the oligonucleotide are independent so transcript binding and U1 snrnp binding can be independently optimized and adapted to a wide array of genes associated with disease. "The U1 Adaptor platform expands on early tech...

...tural hosts. Several factors prevent the conventional overexpression of snrnp polypeptides in bacteria. First, many individual snRNP proteins are insoluble in the absence of their binding partners. Second, many snrnp proteins are 100 to 280 kD in mass, making their overexpression in E. c...
