As few as 3 exon nucleotides are required for the first step of the splicing reaction. (A) Substrates derived from the AdML pre-mRNA lack a downstream exon and the 3′ splice site. (B) Efficient intron lariat formation was observed for substrates containing three or more exon-1 nucleotides during a 1-hr incubation in nuclear extracts.
