+Spliced-Leader RNA trans Splicing in a Chordate, Oikopleura dioica, with a Compact Genome.
+
+[[!pmid 15314184 desc="5′ splice leader (SL) found in 90/158 ESTs containing a start codon. The SL RNA is found downstream of the 5S RNA in at least 40 occurences, and aproximately 2/3 of all the 5S rRNA genes. O. doica is the first chordate where gene operons have been described."]]
