A)CPSFs are products of RNA sequences designed to recognize the 3'OH at the splice site.
B)PABIII recognizes the A rich sequences at the 5' end of the splice site.
C)Lariats are the sequence recognized by the cleavage site.
D)smURFs are used to recognize the poly A tail and initiate slicing
E)snRNPs are the protein product of U rich RNAs that partially complement the 5' splice junction.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

snRNPs (small nuclear ribonucleoproteins) are indeed associated with splicing, specifically recognizing and binding to sequences at the splice junctions to facilitate the removal of introns from pre-mRNA. They are composed of snRNA (small nuclear RNA) and protein components, where the snRNA part can base pair with sequences at the splice sites, aiding in the assembly of the spliceosome.
