Term Information

Accession
GO:0000394
Name
RNA splicing, via endonucleolytic cleavage and ligation
Ontology
biological_process
Synonyms
mRNA splicing
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
Splicing of RNA via recognition of the folded RNA structure that brings the 5' and 3' splice sites into proximity and cleavage of the RNA at both the 3' and 5' splice sites by an endonucleolytic mechanism, followed by ligation of the exons. Source: GOC:krc, ISBN:0879695897
Comment
Note that while typically associated with tRNA splicing, this mechanism of splicing is known to be used for some non-tRNA substrates, e.g. HAC1 (YFL031W) in S. cerevisiae and an intron in the 23S rRNA of the Archaeal species Desulfurococcus mobilis.
