| - | The U2 snRNP <scene name='72/726441/Dockscene/1'> | + | The spliceosome is assembled from the U4/U6.U5 tri-snRNP, the U1 snRNP, and the U2 snRNP. The U2 snRNP interacts with the region highlighted in blue <scene name='72/726441/Dockscene/1'>in this view</scene>. The U1 snRNP interacts with the U2 snRNP. The initial assembly is inactive; extensive conformational changes (including unwinding of the U4/U6 base pairing) are required for activation of the spliceosome. |
