==Overview==
==Overview==
The essential Saccharomyces cerevisiae pre-messenger RNA splicing protein, 24 (Prp24) has four RNA recognition motifs (RRMs) and facilitates U6 RNA, base-pairing with U4 RNA during spliceosome assembly. Prp24 is a component, of the free U6 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (snRNP) but not, the U4/U6 bi-snRNP, and so is thought to be displaced from U6 by U4/U6, base-pairing. The interaction partners of each of the four RRMs of Prp24, and how these interactions direct U4/U6 pairing are not known. Here we, report the crystal structure of the first three RRMs and the solution, structure of the first two RRMs of Prp24. Strikingly, RRM 2 forms, extensive inter-domain contacts with RRMs 1 and 3. These contacts occupy, much of the canonical RNA-binding faces (beta-sheets) of RRMs 1 and 2, but, leave the beta-sheet of RRM 3 exposed. Previously identified substitutions, in Prp24 that suppress mutations in U4 and U6 spliceosomal RNAs cluster, primarily in the beta-sheet of RRM 3, but also in a conserved loop of RRM, 2. RNA binding assays and chemical shift mapping indicate that a large, basic patch evident on the surface of RRMs 1 and 2 is part of a high, affinity U6 RNA binding site. Our results suggest that Prp24 binds free U6, RNA primarily with RRMs 1 and 2, which may remodel the U6 secondary, structure. The beta-sheet of RRM 3 then influences U4/U6 pairing through, interaction with an unidentified ligand.
