prp8 mutations that cause human Retinitis pigmentosa lead to a U5 snRNP maturation defect in yeast

Prp8 protein is a highly conserved pre-mRNA splicing factor and a component of spliceosomal U5 snRNPs. Intriguingly, although it is ubiquitously expressed, mutations in the C-terminus of human Prp8p cause the retina-specific disease Retinitis pigmentosa (RP). The biogenesis of U5 snRNPs is poorly ch...
