Which of the following splicosomal RNAs does not take part in the 5’ site splicing of the intron? Correct Answer U5
5’ splice site is primarily recognized by U1 snRNP in the pre – mRNA. Later in the reaction, this splice site is further recognized by U6 snRNP of the splicosome complex. The branch point site is recognized by U2 and thus these three snRNPs take part in the splicing of the 5’ splice site.
