SmE1 is a functional subunit of the Arabidopsis Sm-ring that controls plant development and response to cold stress

We report the role of SmE1 protein in the control of Arabidopsis development and tolerance to abiotic stresses. SmE1 controls gene expression reprogramming at the post-transcriptional level by promoting the splicing of pre-mRNA. This function is selectively achieve over selected transcripts depending on the stimulus nature. Overall design: Transcriptomic profiling through RNAseq of Col-0 and sme1-1 plants under control conditions or exposed to low temperatures (4ºC, 24h)
