GONUTS is under stress! The website is currently experiencing long-wait times and frequent time-outs due to the record number of students, groups, and annotations related to CACAO this semester. We are currently working on increasing performance -- please accept our apologies for the technical difficulties.
You can help reduce stress on the server by:
- not reloading pages frequently - this just adds
- opening links in new windows (so you can read the old page)
Category:GO:0000362 ! first U2-type spliceosomal transesterification activity
![]()
This GO term has been obsoleted.
Do not annotate to it.
id: GO:0000362
name: first U2-type spliceosomal transesterification activity
namespace: molecular_function
def: "OBSOLETE. Catalysis of the first transesterification reaction of U2-type spliceosomal mRNA splicing. The intron branch site adenosine is the nucleophile attacking the 5' splice site, resulting in cleavage at this position. In cis splicing, this is the step that forms a lariat structure of the intron RNA, which is still joined to the 3' exon. The catalytic site is thought to be formed by U6 and/or U2 snRNA, and/or associated proteins." [GOC:krc, ISBN:0879695897]
comment: This term was made obsolete because the activities used in the U2- and U12-type complexes are the same. The cellular component ontology should (and does) represent the two different complexes, but the molecular function ontology should not.
synonym: "lariat formation, 5'-splice site cleavage" BROAD []
