The main function of Prp24 seems to be directly related to formation of the U4/U6 complex, particularly based on the evidence that Prp24 is present in U6 and U4/U6, but not U4/U6.U5 <ref name="Shannon"/><ref name="Ghetti"/><ref name="Jandrositz"/>. Prp24 greatly increases the rate and efficiency of U4/U6 annealing <ref nam"Raghunathan">PMID:9452384</ref> and mutations in Prp24 have been shown to prevent the formation of the U4/U6 di-snRNP <ref name="Lygerou">PMID:10022888</ref>. Although the exact mechanism by which Prp24 promotes annealing of U4 and U6, it has been suggested that Prp24 may stabilize the secondary structure of U6 to allow it to interact with U4 in order to allow formation of U4/U6 <ref name="Vidaver"/>. | The main function of Prp24 seems to be directly related to formation of the U4/U6 complex, particularly based on the evidence that Prp24 is present in U6 and U4/U6, but not U4/U6.U5 <ref name="Shannon"/><ref name="Ghetti"/><ref name="Jandrositz"/>.

The interactions of Prp24 with U6 and U4/U6 are very important in proper spliceosome assembly, as evidenced by mutations in Prp24 that suppress mutations in U6 or U4. Mutations in RRM 2 and RRM 3 suppress the effects of mutations in the 3' stem of U6, in a region termed the telestem | The interactions of Prp24 with U6 and U4/U6 are very important in proper spliceosome assembly, as evidenced by mutations in Prp24 that suppress mutations in U6 or U4. Mutations in RRM 2 and RRM 3 suppress the effects of mutations in the 3' stem of U6, in a region termed the telestem <ref name="Vidaver"/>. A later study showed that RRM 1 binds with high affinity to U6 and is important in interactions with mutations in the 3' region of U6 <ref name="Kwan"/>. Mutations in two RNP consensus domains of Prp24 suppress the effects of mutations in U4 in the stem II region of U4/U6 <ref name="Shannon"/>. Truncation and deletion of internal segments of U6 showed that the central region of U6 is the most important region for interaction with Prp24 and that RRM 1 and RRM 2 are the likely portions of Prp24 that interact with U6 in this region <ref name="Kwan"/>. Deletion of conserved residues in the C-terminal domain of Prp24 caused temperature sensitive growth and reduced levels of U4/U6, suggesting that this region too, containing the fourth RRM, is important for interactions in assembly of the spliceosome <ref name="Rader"/>. | ||
NMR analysis of fragments of U6 sequence and regions of Prp24 have further defined and supported the interactions of the protein with U6 snRNA. Analysis of an RNA oligonucleotide containing sequences identical to nucleotides 41-46 and 83-88 of U6 (the regions proposed to bind to Prp24) with a truncated protein containing RRMs 1 and 2 of Prp24 showed that these RRMs interacted sequence specifically with these nucleotides | NMR analysis of fragments of U6 sequence and regions of Prp24 have further defined and supported the interactions of the protein with U6 snRNA.

Another NMR study identified sequence specific interaction of RRM 2 with RNA, and it was determined from this that most likely region of U6 for interaction was the AGAGAU sequence of nucleotides 49-54, within the region of previously predicted interaction <ref name="Martin">PMID:20181740</ref>. From this, it was predicted that RRM 1 would interact with the GAUCAG sequence of nucleotides 55-60 <ref name="Martin"/>. | ||
