Catalysis :<br />

1.Formation of the C complex produces the<br />

active <strong>site</strong>, with U2 and U6 RNAs being<br />

brought together<br />

2.Formation of the active <strong>site</strong> juxtaposes the 5’ 5<br />

<strong>splice</strong> <strong>site</strong> of the pre-mRNA and the branch<br />

<strong>site</strong>, allowing the branched A residue to attack<br />

the 5’ 5 <strong>splice</strong> <strong>site</strong> to accomplish the first<br />

transesterfication reaction.<br />

3.U5 snRNP helps to bring the two exons<br />

together, and aids the second<br />

transesterification reaction, in which the 3’-OH<br />

of the 5’ exon attacks the 3’ <strong>splice</strong> <strong>site</strong>.<br />

4.Release of the mRNA product and the snRNPs
