U12 type introns were lost at multiple occasions during evolution
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Two categories of introns are known, a common U2 type and a rare U12 type. These two types of introns are removed by distinct spliceosomes. The phylogenetic distribution of spliceosomal RNAs that are characteristic of the U12 spliceo...
