Alternative Polyadenylation in Human Diseases
Varying length of messenger RNA (mRNA) 3'-untranslated region is generated by alternating the usage of polyadenylation sites during pre-mRNA processing. It is prevalent through all eukaryotes and has emerged as a key mechanism for controlling gene expression.

Comprehensive Polyadenylation Site Maps in Yeast and Human Reveal Pervasive Alternative Polyadenylation [PDF]
The emerging discoveries on the link between polyadenylation and disease states underline the need to fully characterize genome-wide polyadenylation states. Here, we report comprehensive maps of global polyadenylation events in human and yeast generated using refinements to the Direct RNA Sequencing technology.

A series of 2‐substituted adenosine 5′‐O‐triphosphate derivatives is synthesized and tested as substrates for polymerases. In vitro transcription with T7 RNA polymerase, primer extension with engineered DNA polymerases, or 3′‐labelling with poly(A) polymerase are used for enzymatic synthesis of base‐modified RNA.

Analysis Polyadenylation Signal Usage in Sus scrofa
RNA polyadenylation is an important step in the messenger RNA (mRNA) maturation process, and the first step is recognizing the polyadenylation signal (PAS).

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 ...

Abstract Disruption of extracellular pH and proton‐sensing can profoundly impact cellular and protein functions, leading to developmental defects. To visualize changes in extracellular pH in the developing embryo, we generated a zebrafish transgenic line that ubiquitously expresses the ratiometric pH‐sensitive fluorescent protein pHluorin2, tethered to

Transposable elements cause alternative splicing (AS) in different ways, contributing to transcript diversification. Alternative polyadenylation (APA), one of the AS events, is related to the generation of mRNA isoforms in 70% of human genes.

Cytoplasmic Polyadenylation in Development and Beyond [PDF]
SUMMARY Maternal mRNA translation is regulated in large part by cytoplasmic polyadenylation. This process, which occurs in both vertebrates and invertebrates, is essential for meiosis and body patterning. In spite of the evolutionary conservation of cytoplasmic polyadenylation, many of the cis elements and trans-acting factors ...

Comprehensive Characterization of Alternative Polyadenylation in Human Cancer.
Background Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is emerging as a major post-transcriptional mechanism for gene regulation, and dysregulation of APA contributes to several human diseases.

Abstract Aims Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a complex syndrome accounting for half of heart failure cases. Although natriuretic peptides are the most accepted and extensively used biomarkers for heart failure, their diagnostic accuracy for HFpEF remains debatable.
