Elucidation of the aberrant 3′ splice site selection by cancer-associated mutations on the U2AF1
U2AF1 binds to the 3’ splice site of introns and its mutation lead to abnormal splicing. Here the authors solve the crystal structures of wild type and pathogenic mutant U2AF1 bound to target RNA, showing that different target sequence is preferred by pathogenic mutant.
