Preferred term

Ribonucleoprotein, U5 Small Nuclear  

Type

  • Topical Descriptor

Entry terms

  • Ribonucleoproteins, Small, U5
  • Small Nuclear Ribonucleoproteins, U5
  • U5 Small Nuclear Ribonucleoproteins
  • U5 snRNP

Scope note

  • A nuclear RNA-protein complex that plays a role in RNA processing. In the nucleoplasm, the U5 snRNP along with U4-U6 snRNP preassemble into a single 25S particle that binds to the U1 and U2 snRNPs and the substrate to form SPLICEOSOMES.

History note

  • 2000; U5 SNRNP was SY to SMALL RIBONUCLEOPROTEINS (NM) 1982-92
