Splicing protein; required for splicing of two mitochondrial group I introns (BI3 in COB and AI5beta in COX1); forms a splicing complex, containing four subunits of Mrs1p and two subunits of the BI3-encoded maturase, that binds to the BI3 RNA; MRS1 has a paralog, CCE1, that arose from the whole genome duplication [Source:SGD;Acc:S000001460]
