Splicing by the spliceosome involves branching and exon ligation. The branching reaction leads to the formation of the catalytic step I spliceosome (C complex). Here we report the cryo-electron microscopy structure of the human C complex at an average resolution of 4.1 angstroms. Compared with the
Saccharomyces cerevisiae
C complex, the human complex contains 11 additional proteins. The step I splicing factors CCDC49 and
CCDC94
(Cwc25 and Yju2 in
S. cerevisiae
, respectively) closely interact with the DEAH-family
adenosine triphosphatase
/helicase Prp16 and bridge the gap between Prp16 and the active-site RNA elements. These features, together with structural comparison of the human C and C* complexes, provide mechanistic insights into ribonucleoprotein remodeling and allow the proposition of a working mechanism for the C-to-C* transition.
