Coupling between pre-mRNA splicing and transcription. Components of the splicing machinery localize to the nascent RNA while transcription is occurring. SR proteins (blue ovals) facilitate cross talk between the CTD tail of RNA polymerase II and the splicing machinery. Cross talk also occurs between the splicing machinery and modified histones. Other RNA processing events, such as 5′ capping, also occur cotranscriptionally
