Spliceosome
A complex of (small nuclear RNA)-protein complexes and other proteins that assemble on a pre-mRNA and catalyse the excision of an intron in a process mechanistically similar to group II self-splicing. It acts presumably by forcing the intron into a loop and bridging the pre-mRNA at its splicing sites.
