(U5-15kD is a component of the U5 small nuclear ribosomal protein particle (snRNP). This in turn is a component of the spliceosome, a macromolecule assembly involved in converting primary transcripts into functional mRNAs. U5-15kD was chosen for this page because it is small, but has the features necessary to illustrate the points being made.) | (U5-15kD is a component of the U5 small nuclear ribosomal protein particle (snRNP).
