A conformational switch in PRP8 mediates metal ion coordination that promotes pre-mRNA exon ligation

Splicing of pre-mRNAs in eukaryotes is catalyzed by the spliceosome a large RNA–protein metalloenzyme. The catalytic center of the spliceosome involves a structure comprised of the U2 and U6 snRNAs and includes a metal bound by U6 snRNA. The precise architecture of the splicesome active site however...
