Spliceosomal U6 small nuclear RNA (U6 RNA) in species as diverse as man, frog, fruitfly, and soybean have at their 3' ends a cyclic 2',3'-phosphate (> p) apparently derived from uridylic acid residues that were added post-transcriptionally. The 3' ends of U6 RNA's from various sources may be processed in different ways, or to different extents, depending on the organism or stage of development. The presence of a > p terminus on U6 RNA may influence the activity of U6 RNA either directly during splicing or indirectly by ensuring that the RNA has a defined length or proper conformation (or both).
