mRNA alternative polyadenylation (APA) in regulation of gene expression and diseases
The mRNA polyadenylation plays essential function in regulation of mRNA metabolism. Mis-regulations of mRNA polyadenylation are frequently linked with aberrant gene expression and disease progression. Under the action of polyadenylate polymerase, poly(A)

Alternative polyadenylation of mRNA precursors [PDF]
Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is an RNA-processing mechanism that generates distinct 3' termini on mRNAs and other RNA polymerase II transcripts. It is widespread across all eukaryotic species and is recognized as a major mechanism of gene regulation. APA exhibits tissue specificity and is important for cell proliferation and differentiation.

Regulation and functions of alternative polyadenylation in fungi. [PDF]
Alternative polyadenylation (APA) has been implicated in regulating transcriptome diversity and gene expression by significantly altering mRNA abundance, stability, localisation, and translation. Understanding the comprehensive landscape of APA can provide valuable insights into the complexity of gene regulation.

G-quadruplexes in the proximity 3′-UTR enhances alternative polyadenylation of Neogenin 1 [PDF]
Summary: Polyadenylation is a crucial step in mRNA maturation. Fifty percent of the time alternative polyadenylation sites (PASs) are used instead of canonical ones, affecting the length of the transcripts’ 3′-UTRs.

Stage-Specific Alternative Polyadenylation During Human Neural Differentiation Revealed by Integrated Long- and Short-Read Sequencing [PDF]
Human embryonic stem cell (hESC) neural differentiation involves extensive APA; however, reliance on short-read sequencing in prior studies has offered only a limited view of its complexity and dynamic regulation. Here, we integrated Oxford Nanopore (ONT)

Alternative polyadenylation of mRNA and its role in cancer
Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is a molecular process that generates diversity at the 3' end of RNA polymerase II transcripts from over 60% of human genes. APA is derived from the existence of multiple polyadenylation signals (PAS) within the same transcript, and results in the differential inclusion of sequence information at the 3' end.
