At present, little is known about the assembly pathway of the latter and the mechanism whereby proteins aid its proper folding. Here, we report the cryo-electron microscopy structures of two human, activated spliceosome precursors (that is, pre-B complexes) at core resolutions of 3.9 and 4.2 angstroms. These structures elucidate the order of the numerous protein exchanges that occur during activation, the mutually exclusive interactions that ensure the correct order of ribonucleoprotein rearrangements needed to form the U2/U6 catalytic RNA, and the stepwise folding pathway of the latter. Structural comparisons with mature B complexes reveal the molecular mechanism whereby a conformational change in the scaffold protein PRP8 facilitates final three-dimensional folding of the U2/U6 catalytic RNA. |
