'''Prp24''' ('''Pr'''e-mRNA splicing '''P'''rotein '''24''') is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saccharomyces_cerevisiae ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae''] yeast protein that functions in the formation of base pair interactions between the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U6_spliceosomal_RNA U6] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U4_spliceosomal_RNA U4] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SnRNP snRNPs (small nuclear ribonucleoproteins)] to form the U4/U6 di-snRNP during the assembly of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spliceosome spliceosome] <ref name="Bae">PMID:17320109</ref>. This protein contains four RNA recognition motifs (RRMs) that function in the binding of Prp24 to U6 snRNA <ref name="Bae"/>. These RRM domains are conserved in structure and sequence in proteins orthologous to Prp24 in ''Homo sapiens'' and ''Schizosaccharomyces pombe'', as well as in other proteins containing RRMs <ref name="Rader">PMID:12458792</ref>. | '''Prp24''' ('''Pr'''e-mRNA splicing '''P'''rotein '''24''') is a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saccharomyces_cerevisiae ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae''] yeast protein that functions in the formation of base pair interactions between the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U6_spliceosomal_RNA U6] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U4_spliceosomal_RNA U4] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SnRNP snRNPs (small nuclear ribonucleoproteins)] to form the U4/U6 di-snRNP during the assembly of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spliceosome spliceosome] <ref name="Bae">PMID:17320109</ref>.
