The Interlocking Lives of LARP7: Fine-Tuning Transcription, RNA Modification, and Splicing through Multiple Non-coding RNAs.

Elegant studies by Hasler et al. (2020) and Wang et al. (2020) uncover a novel role of LARP7 in facilitating the 2'-O-methylation of the spliceosomal U6 snRNA, which is functionally required for fidelity of pre-mRNA splicing and development of male germ cells.
