U6 snRNA

U6 snRNA is a small nuclear RNA molecule involved in the process of splicing, where it helps modify and generate mature messenger RNA (mRNA) from precursor mRNA. In the cell nucleus, U6 snRNA works within a complex called the spliceosome to identify and remove non-coding regions (introns) from the pre-mRNA. This editing is essential for producing functional proteins. U6 snRNA's structure and interactions are crucial for the precise execution of splicing, making it a key component in gene expression regulation and proper cellular function.
