Poly(A)-Driven and Poly(A)-Assisted Termination: Two Different Modes of Poly(A)-Dependent Transcription Termination [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular and Cellular Biology, 1998
We mapped the elements that mediate termination of transcription downstream of the chicken betaH- and betaA-globin gene poly(A) sites. We found no unique element and no segment of 3'-flanking DNA to be significantly more effective than any other. When we replaced the native 3'-flanking DNA with bacterial DNA, it too supported transcription termination.

The Dynamic Poly(A) Tail Acts as a Signal Hub in mRNA Metabolism

open access: yesCells, 2023
In eukaryotes, mRNA metabolism requires a sophisticated signaling system. Recent studies have suggested that polyadenylate tail may play a vital role in such a system.

Exchange reactions of poly(arylene ether ketone) dithioketals with aliphatic diols: formation and deprotection of poly(arylene ether ketal)s [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The dithioketal derivatives of industrially important, semi-crystalline poly(arylene ether ketone)s undergo facile exchange with aliphatic diols in the presence of N-bromo-succinimide to give a range of novel poly(arylene ether ketal)s.

Poly A- transcripts expressed in HeLa cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
Transcripts expressed in eukaryotes are classified as poly A+ transcripts or poly A- transcripts based on the presence or absence of the 3' poly A tail.

Poly(A) Tail Shortening by a Mammalian Poly(A)-specific 3′-Exoribonuclease [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1997
3'-Exonucleolytic removal of the poly(A) tail is the first and often rate-limiting step in the decay of many eucaryotic mRNAs. In a cytoplasmic extract from HeLa cells, the poly(A) tail of mRNA was degraded from the 3'-end. In agreement with earlier in vivo observations, prominent decay intermediates differed in length by about 30 nucleotides. The Mg2+-

iCLIP analysis of RNA substrates of the archaeal exosome

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2020
Background The archaeal exosome is an exoribonucleolytic multiprotein complex, which degrades single-stranded RNA in 3′ to 5′ direction phosphorolytically. In a reverse reaction, it can add A-rich tails to the 3′-end of RNA.

Birth of a poly(A) tail: mechanisms and control of mRNA polyadenylation

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, 2023
During their synthesis in the cell nucleus, most eukaryotic mRNAs undergo a two‐step 3′‐end processing reaction in which the pre‐mRNA is cleaved and released from the transcribing RNA polymerase II and a polyadenosine (poly(A)) tail is added to the newly

RNA-binding proteins distinguish between similar sequence motifs to promote targeted deadenylation by Ccr4-Not

open access: yeseLife, 2019
The Ccr4-Not complex removes mRNA poly(A) tails to regulate eukaryotic mRNA stability and translation. RNA-binding proteins contribute to specificity by interacting with both Ccr4-Not and target mRNAs, but this is not fully understood.

Evaluation of a poly(lactic-acid) scaffold filled with poly(lactide-co-glycolide)/hydroxyapatite nanofibres for reconstruction of a segmental bone defect in a canine model

open access: yesVeterinární Medicína, 2019
Critical-sized bone defects are a difficult problem in both human and veterinary medicine. To address this issue, synthetic graft materials have been garnering attention.

Suppression of polyglutamine toxicity by a Drosophila homolog of myeloid leukemia factor 1 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The toxicity of an abnormally long polyglutamine [poly(Q)] tract within specific proteins is the molecular lesion shared by Huntington's disease (HD) and several other hereditary neurodegenerative disorders.
