Coupling of alternative splicing and alternative polyadenylation
RNA splicing and 3′-cleavage and polyadenylation (CPA) are essential processes for the maturation of RNA. There have been extensive independent studies of these regulated processing events, including alternative ...

Alternative Polyadenylation: Methods, Findings, and Impacts
Alternative polyadenylation (APA), a phenomenon that RNA molecules with different 3â² ends originate from distinct polyadenylation sites of a single gene, is emerging as a mechanism widely used to regulate gene expression.

Transcriptional activity regulates alternative cleavage and polyadenylation
Genes containing multiple pre‐mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation sites, or polyA sites, express mRNA isoforms with variable 3′ untranslated regions (UTRs).

Alternative Polyadenylation Blooms [PDF]
Alternative polyadenylation generates mRNAs with 3' untranscribed regions of different lengths, often affecting transcript stability. Hornyik et al., in this issue of Developmental Cell, and Liu et al. now demonstrate a role for alternative polyadenylation in gene silencing and the regulation of flowering time in Arabidopsis thaliana.

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.

Alternative polyadenylation of cyclooxygenase-2 [PDF]
A biologically important human gene, cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), has been proposed to be regulated at many levels. While COX-1 is constitutively expressed in cells, COX-2 is inducible and is upregulated in response to many signals. Since increased transcriptional activity accounts for only part of the upregulation of COX-2, we chose to explore other RNA ...

Mechanisms and Consequences of Alternative Polyadenylation [PDF]
Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is emerging as a widespread mechanism used to control gene expression. Like alternative splicing, usage of alternative poly(A) sites allows a single gene to encode multiple mRNA transcripts. In some cases, this changes the mRNA coding potential; in other cases, the code remains unchanged but the 3' UTR length is ...

Alternative Polyadenylation: Another Foe in Cancer [PDF]
Abstract Advancements in sequencing and transcriptome analysis methods have led to seminal discoveries that have begun to unravel the complexity of cancer. These studies are paving the way toward the development of improved diagnostics, prognostic predictions, and targeted treatment options. However, it is clear that pieces of the cancer

Alternative cleavage and polyadenylation: the long and short of it [PDF]
Cleavage and polyadenylation (C/P) of nascent transcripts is essential for maturation of the 3' ends of most eukaryotic mRNAs. Over the past three decades, biochemical studies have elucidated the machinery responsible for the seemingly simple C/P reaction.
