Protein factors in pre-mRNA 3′-end processing

CR Mandel, Y Bai, L Tong - Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2008 - Springer
Most eukaryotic mRNA precursors (premRNAs) must undergo extensive processing,
including cleavage and polyadenylation at the 3′-end. Processing at the 3′-end is …

Signals for pre‐mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation

B Tian, JH Graber - Wiley interdisciplinary reviews: RNA, 2012 - Wiley Online Library
Pre‐mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation is an essential step for 3′ end formation of

Widespread influence of 3′-end structures on mammalian mRNA processing and stability

X Wu, DP Bartel - Cell, 2017 - cell.com
The physiological relevance of structures within mammalian mRNAs has been elusive, as
these mRNAs are less folded in cells than in vitro and have predicted secondary structures …

The 64-kilodalton subunit of the CstF polyadenylation factor binds to pre-mRNAs downstream of the cleavage site and influences cleavage site location

CC MacDonald, J Wilusz, T Shenk - Molecular and cellular biology, 1994 - Taylor & Francis
The CstF polyadenylation factor is a multisubunit complex required for efficient cleavage and
polyadenylation of pre-mRNAs. Using an RNase H-mediated map** technique, we show …

RNA recognition by the human polyadenylation factor CstF

Y Takagaki, JL Manley - Molecular and cellular biology, 1997 - Taylor & Francis

Position-dependent sequence elements downstream of AAUAAA are required for efficient rabbit β-globin mRNA 3′ end formation

A Gil, NJ Proudfoot - Cell, 1987 - cell.com
We previously demonstrated that a critical 35 bp region 3'of the AAUAAA is required for
rabbit (3-globln mRNA 3'end formation. Recently, we synthesized and tested sequence …
