Abstract

In addition to small nuclear RNAs and spliceosomal proteins, ATP hydrolysis is needed for nuclear pre-mRNA splicing. A number of RNA-dependent ATPases which are involved in several distinct ATP-dependent steps in splicing have been identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and mammals. These so-called DEAD/H ATPases contain conserved RNA helicase motifs, although RNA unwinding activity has not been demonstrated in purified proteins. Here we report the role of one such DEAH protein, PRP2 of S. cerevisiae, in spliceosome activation. PRP2 bound to a precatalytic spliceosome prior to the first step of splicing. By blocking the activity of a novel splicing factor(s), HP, which was involved in a post-PRP2 step, we found that PRP2 hydrolyzed ATP to cause a change in the spliceosome without the occurrence of splicing. The change was quite dramatic and could account for the previously reported differences between the precatalytic, pre-mRNA-containing spliceosome and the "active," intermediate-containing spliceosome. The post-PRP2-ATP spliceosome was further isolated and could carry out the subsequent reaction apparently in the absence of PRP2 and ATP. We hypothesize that PRP2 functions as a molecular motor, similar to some DExH ATPases in ...Continue Reading
