We have performed a systematic study of the effect of artificial hairpins on pre‐mRNA
splicing in protoplasts of a dicot plant, Nicotiana plumbaginifolia. Hairpins with a potential to …

We have found previously that the sequences important for recognition of pre‐mRNA introns
in dicot plants differ from those in the introns of vertebrates and yeast. Neither a conserved …

Arabidopsis intron mutants provide and will continue to provide a valuable source of
information on in vivo plant intron splicing. All of the characterized mutants discussed here …

In vivo analyses of cis-acting sequence requirements for pre-mRNA splicing in tobacco
nuclei have previously demonstrated that the 5'splice sites are selected by their position …

In vivo analyses of the cis‐acting sequence requirements for pre‐mRNA splicing in tobacco
nuclei have previously demonstrated that 5′ splice sites are selected by their position …

The process of 5′ and 3′ splice site definition in plant pre‐mRNA splicing differs from that
in mammals and yeast. In mammals, splice sites are chosen by their complementarity to U1 …

Exon definition is a mechanism whereby splice sites are selected initially via interactions
between splicing factors across an exon, prior to spliceosome assembly and intron removal …

In vivo and in vitro RNA splicing experiments have demonstrated that the intron splicing
machineries are not interchangeable in all organisms. These differences have prevented the …

The majority of eukaryotic mRNAs are produced from precursor mRNAs (pre-mRNAs) by the
excision of intervening sequences (introns) in a process called splicing. The basic …

Two plant introns along with flanking exon sequences have been isolated from an amylase
gene of wheat and a legumin gene of pea and cloned behind the phage SP6 promoter. Pre …
