Nucleoproteins (NP) are proteins associated with DNA or RNA[1]. NPs which contain RNA are called ribonucleoproteins (RNPs). The NP RNA-recognition motif is named RRM. The small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) are RNA-protein complexes which form part of the spliceosome[2]. The heterogenous nuclear ribonucleoproteins (hnRNP) are RNA-protein complexes which associates with the splicing apparatus and prevent the folding of pre-mRNA.
For details on heterogenous nuclear ribonucleoproteins see HnRNP A1.
