Although the spliceosome evolved from a prokaryotic self-splicing intron and an associated protein, it is a vastly more complex and dynamic ribonucleoprotein (RNP) whose function requires at least eight ATPases and multiple RNA rearrangements. These features afford stepwise opportunities for multiple inspections of the intron substrate, coupled with spliceosome disassembly for substrates that fail inspection. Early work using splicing-defective pre-mRNAs or small nuclear (sn)RNAs in <em>Saccharomyces cerevisiae</em> demonstrated that such checks could occur in catalytically active spliceosomes. We review recent results on pre-mRNA splicing in various systems, including humans, suggesting that earlier steps in spliceosome assembly are also subject to such quality control. The inspection–rejection framework helps explain the dynamic nature of the spliceosome.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":440,"journal":{"name":"Trends in Biochemical Sciences","volume":"49 7","pages":"Pages 583-595"},"PeriodicalIF":11.6,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0968000424000781/pdfft?md5=bbb6aeb7e63838ff600a8cb1ff1d8071&pid=1-s2.0-S0968000424000781-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140776366","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, emerging evidence over the past 15 years suggests that these βarr-mediated events do not necessarily terminate receptor signaling and that some GPCRs continue to activate G proteins after having been internalized into endosomes.
