A cis-acting negative regulator of splicing (NRS) within the gag gene of RSV is involved in control of the relative levels of spliced and unspliced viral mRNAs. Insertion of the NRS into the intron of an adenovirus pre-mRNA resulted in inhibition of splicing in vitro before the first cleavage step. Analyses of spliceosome assembly with this substrate showed that it formed large RNP complexes that did not migrate like mature spliceosomes on native gels. Affinity selection of the RNP complexes formed on NRS-containing pre-mRNAs showed an association with U11 and U12 snRNPs, as well as with the spliceosomal snRNPs. Immunoprecipitation with antisera specific for U1 and U2 snRNPS showed binding of both snRNPs to NRS RNA. A 7-nucleotide missense mutation in the NRS that prevented binding of U11 and U12 snRNPs impaired NRS activity in vivo, suggesting a functional role for U11 and U12 snRNPs in the inhibition of splicing mediated by the RSV NRS RNA.

Mutation of an RSV intronic element abolishes both U11/U12 snRNP binding and negative regulation of splicing.
