The negative regulator of splicing (NRS) from Rous sarcoma virus suppresses viral RNA splicing and is one of severalcis elements that account for the accumulation of large amounts of unspliced RNA for use asgag-pol mRNA and progeny virion genomic RNA. The NRS can also inhibit splicing of heterologous introns in vivo and in vitro. Previous data showed that the splicing factors SF2/ASF and U1, U2, and U11 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) bind the NRS, and a correlation was established between SF2/ASF and U11 binding and activity, suggesting that these factors are important for function. These observations, and the finding that a large spliceosome-like complex (NRS-C) assembles on NRS RNA in nuclear extract, led to the proposal that the NRS is recognized as a minor-class 5′ splice site. One model to explain NRS splicing inhibition holds that the NRS interacts nonproductively with and sequesters U2-dependent 3′ splice sites. In this study, we provide evidence that the NRS interacts with an adenovirus 3′ splice site. The interaction was dependent on the integrity of the branch point and pyrimidine tract of the 3′ splice site, and it was sensitive to a mutation that was previously shown to abolish U11 snRNP binding and NRS function. However, further mutational analyses of NRS sequences have identified a U1 binding site that overlaps the U11 site, and the interaction with the 3′ splice site correlated with U1, not U11, binding. These results show that the NRS can interact with a 3′ splice site and suggest that U1 is of primary importance for NRS splicing inhibition.
