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 (APA) plays an essential role in brain development; however, current transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) largely overlook APA in nominating susceptibility genes.

Cancer cells usually exhibit shortened 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) due to alternative polyadenylation (APA) to promote cell proliferation and migration. Upregulated CPSF6 leads to a systematic prolongation of 3' UTRs, but CPSF6 expression in tumors is

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 ...

Alternative polyadenylation alters protein dosage by switching between intronic and 3′UTR sites
Alternative polyadenylation (APA) creates distinct transcripts from the same gene by cleaving the pre-mRNA at poly(A) sites that can lie within the 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR), introns, or exons.

Changes of mRNA 3’UTRs by alternative polyadenylation (APA) have been associated to numerous pathologies, but the mechanisms and consequences often remain enigmatic. By combining transcriptomics, proteomics and recombinant viruses we show that all tested

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

Stress responses of plants through transcriptome plasticity by mRNA alternative polyadenylation
The sessile nature of plants confines their responsiveness to changing environmental conditions. Gene expression regulation becomes a paramount mechanism for plants to adjust their physiological and morphological behaviors.
