We sought to determine the genomic structure of YL-1 when we discovered that it lies next to and intergenically splices into TMOD4 (see below).
This ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex is an endonuclease, which can initiate reverse splicing into an intron-less target site in a process known as retrohoming [ 3 ] . After the intron RNA reverse splices into one strand of the double-stranded DNA, the intron-encoded protein cleaves the other strand at position +9 or +10 downstream of the intron insertion site, and the generated 3' end of the second strand is used as a primer for reverse transcription of the inserted intron RNA.
It is 476 bp in length and contains YL-1 exons 1 and up to position 276 in exon 2 at which it splices internal to exon 6 at position 1107.
On a plane, he meets Tyler Durden (Brad Pitt), a cryptic hipster with a penchant for subversive acts both large (he makes high-priced soaps from liposuctioned human fat) and small (he splices frames from porn flicks into kiddie movies).
Accordingly, poly(A) sites are not efficiently recognised when positioned between 5' and 3' splice sites [ 38 39 ] , and insertion of a 5' splice site into a 3' terminal exon suppresses polyadenylation [ 40 42 ] . Conversely, upstream 3' splice sites can enhance polyadenylation [ 43 44 45 ] . We find that the proximal hnRNP A2/B1 exon upstream of the provirus does not lose its identity; rather, the exon splices either to the Neo splice site or to the next hnRNP A2/B1 exon.
