    Abstract:
    U6 snRNA is one of the uridine-rich non-coding RNAs, abundant and stable in various cells, function as core particles in the intron-lariat spliceosome (ILS) complex. The Increased Level of Polyploidy1-1D (ILP1) and NTC-related protein 1 (NTR1), two conserved disassembly factors of the ILS complex, facilitates the disintegration of the ILS complex after completing intron splicing. The functional impairment of ILP1 and NTR1 lead to increased U6 levels, while other snRNAs comprising the ILS complex remained unaffected. We revealed that ILP1 and NTR1 had no impact on the transcription, 3' end phosphate structure or oligo(U) tail of U6 snRNA. Moreover, we uncovered that the mutation of ILP1 and NTR1 resulted in the accumulation of ILS complexes, impeding the dissociation of U6 from splicing factors, leading to an extended half-life of U6 and ultimately causing an elevation in U6 snRNA levels. Our findings broaden the understanding of the functions of ILS disassembly factors ILP1 and NTR1, and providing insights into the dynamic disassembly between U6 and ILS.
