The AAUAAA sequence is required both for cleavage and for polyadenylation of simian virus 40 pre-mRNA in vitro.
The sequence AAUAAA is found near the polyadenylation site of eucaryotic mRNAs. This sequence is required for accurate and efficient cleavage and polyadenylation of pre-mRNAs in vivo. In this study we show that synthetic simian virus 40 late pre-mRNAs are cleaved and polyadenylated in vitro in a HeLa cell nuclear extract, and that cleavage in vitro is abolished by each of four different single-...
متن کاملDownstream elements of mammalian pre-mRNA polyadenylation signals: primary, secondary and higher-order structures.
Primary, secondary and higher-order structures of downstream elements of mammalian pre-mRNA polyadenylation signals [poly(A) signals] are re viewed. We have carried out a detailed analysis on our database of 244 human pre-mRNA poly(A) signals in order to characterize elements in their downstream regions. We suggest that the downstream region of the mammalian pre-mRNA poly(A) signal consists of ...
متن کاملExploring the Impact of Cleavage and Polyadenylation Factors on Pre-mRNA Splicing Across Eukaryotes
In human, mouse, and Drosophila, the spliceosomal complex U1 snRNP (U1) protects transcripts from premature cleavage and polyadenylation at proximal intronic polyadenylation signals (PAS). These U1-mediated effects preserve transcription integrity, and are known as telescripting. The watchtower role of U1 throughout transcription is clear. What is less clear is whether cleavage and polyadenylat...
متن کاملComponents required for in vitro cleavage and polyadenylation of eukaryotic mRNA.
We have studied in vitro cleavage/polyadenylation of precursor RNA containing herpes simplex virus type 2 poly A site sequences and have analyzed four RNA/protein complexes which form during in vitro reactions. Two complexes, A and B, form extremely rapidly and are then progressively replaced by a third complex, C which is produced following cleavage and polyadenylation of precursor RNA. Substi...
متن کاملHeterogeneity in polyadenylation cleavage sites in mammalian mRNA sequences: implications for SAGE analysis.
The analysis of a human thyroid serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) library shows the presence of an abundant SAGE tag corresponding to the mRNA of thyroglobulin (TG). Additional, less abundant tags are present that can not be linked to any other known gene, but show considerable homology to the wild-type TG tag. To determine whether these tags represent TG mRNA molecules with alternative...
