The Solution Structure of FUS Bound to RNA Reveals a Bipartite Mode of RNA Recognition with Both Sequence and Shape Specificity.

TL;DR: These structures show a bipartite binding mode of FUS comprising of sequence-specific recognition of a NGGU motif via the ZnF and an unusual shape Recognition of a stem-loop RNA via the RRM, and it is shown that disruption of theRRM andZnF domains abolishes FUS function in splicing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of EJC-enhanced and EJC-independent NMD in human cells reveals two partially redundant degradation pathways.

TL;DR: The surprising heterogeneity observed with only two NMD reporter pairs suggests the existence of several mechanistically distinct branches of NMD in human cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Minor intron splicing is regulated by FUS and affected by ALS-associated FUS mutants

TL;DR: It is shown that FUS interacts with the minor spliceosome constituent U11 snRNP, binds preferentially to minor introns and directly regulates their removal, and a FUS knockout in neuroblastoma cells strongly disturbs the splicing of minor intron‐containing m RNAs, among them mRNAs required for action potential transmission and for functional spinal motor units.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rescue of a severe mouse model for spinal muscular atrophy by U7 snRNA-mediated splicing modulation

TL;DR: It is shown that a bifunctional U7 snRNA that stimulates exon 7 inclusion, when introduced by germline transgenesis, can efficiently complement the most severe mouse SMA model.
