RU17, also known as RNU-17P or U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein, is one of the small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs). These proteins are components of the spliceosome, a complex responsible for the splicing of pre-mRNA, which is critical for proper gene expression. In autoimmune disease lupus, formerly known as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), the immune system attacks components of body cells, including proteins involved in the spliceosome. Autoantibodies produced by the immune system in lupus patients often target proteins like Sm proteins, which are part of the snRNP complex, and t
