- Definition
- U6 snRNA is a component of the spliceosome which is involved in splicing pre-mRNA. The putative secondary structure consensus base pairing is confined to a short 5' stem loop, but U6 snRNA is thought to form extensive base-pair interactions with U4 snRNA. http://www.sanger.ac.uk/cgi-bin/Rfam/getacc?RF00015
