    Abstract The function of Dicer's helicase domain has been enigmatic since its discovery. Why do only some Dicers require ATP, despite a high degree of sequence conservation in their helicase domains? We discuss evolutionary considerations based on differences between vertebrate and invertebrate antiviral defense, and how the helicase domain has been co-opted in extant organisms as the binding site for accessory proteins. Many accessory proteins are double-stranded RNA binding proteins, and we propose models for how they modulate Dicer function and catalysis.

    Abstract In eukaryotes, splice sites define the introns of pre-mRNAs and must be recognized and excised with nucleotide precision by the spliceosome to make the correct mRNA product. In one of the earliest steps of spliceosome assembly, the U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) recognizes the 5' splice site (5' SS) through a combination of base pairing, protein-RNA contacts, and interactions with other splicing factors. Previous studies investigating the mechanisms of 5' SS recognition have largely been done in vivo or in cellular extracts where the U1/5' SS interaction is difficult to deconvolute from the effects of

    Abstract The spliceosome mediates precursor mRNA splicing in eukaryotes, including the model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast). Despite decades of study, no chemical inhibitors of yeast splicing in vivo are available. We have developed a system to efficiently inhibit splicing and block proliferation in living yeast cells using compounds that target the human spliceosome protein SF3B1. Potent inhibition is observed in yeast expressing a chimeric protein containing portions of human SF3B1. However, only a single point mutation in the yeast homolog of SF3B1 is needed for selective inhibition of splicing by pladienolide B, herboxidiene, or meayamycin in liquid culture. Mutations that enable inhibition also improve splicing of branch sites containing mismatches between the intron and small nuclear RNA-suggesting a link between inhibitor sensitivity and usage of weak branch sites in humans. This approach provides powerful new tools for manipulating splicing in live yeast and studies of spliceosome inhibitors.
