What Does SNRNP Stand For?
SNRNP stands for Small Nuclear Ribonucleo Protein Particle
SNRNP, or Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein Particle, refers to a complex of RNA and proteins that plays a critical role in the processing of pre-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) in eukaryotic cells. These particles are essential components of the spliceosome, the molecular machine responsible for splicing introns from pre-mRNA, facilitating the maturation of messenger RNA (mRNA) required for protein synthesis. SNRNPs are vital for gene expression regulation and are involved in various cellular processes, including RNA transport and degradation.
