The upstream 5′ splice site remains associated to the transcription machinery during intron synthesis

We know that most splicing reactions take place co-transcriptionally, but how the transcription machinery facilitate splicing of introns is unknown. Here the authors show that the 5′ splice site remains associated with the transcription machinery during intron synthesis through U1 snRNP, providing a...
