    protein
  • CWC22 and DHX16 bind to the spliceosome independently of each other (CWC22 is required for the productive function of DHX16 in the first catalytic step, but in the absence of CWC22, DHX16 binds to the spliceosome and dissociates upon ATP hydrolysis in a nonproductive manner)
  • during step 1 of splicing, PRPF8 interactions with SF3b proteins are replaced by SLU7, positioning this second step factor close to the active site, and that the DEAH-box helicases DHX16 and DHX38 cooperate through ordered interactions with GPKOW (PMIDl:
