Nuclear speckles: molecular organization, biological function and role in disease.

abstract：:Hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA is recognized and cleaved in vitro by RNase P enzyme near the AUG start codon. Because RNase P identifies transfer RNA (tRNA) precursors, it has been proposed that HCV RNA adopts structural similarities to tRNA. Here, we present experimental evidence of RNase P sensitivity conservation in n...
