The 3′-ends of both prokaryotic and eukaryotic mRNA are polyadenylated, but the poly (A)
tracts of prokaryotic mRNA are generally shorter, ranging from 15 to 60 adenylate residues …

Poly (A) tail is a hallmark of eukaryotic messenger RNA and its length plays an essential role
in regulating mRNA metabolism. However, a comprehensive resource for plant poly (A) tail …

Abstract mRNA polyadenylation functions in nuclear export, translation, and stability. We
describe an efficient protocol designed to assess poly (A) tail length that is based on 3 …

Pre‐mRNA cleavage and polyadenylation is an essential step for 3′ end formation of
almost all protein‐coding transcripts in eukaryotes. The reaction, involving cleavage of …

INTRODUCTION The polyadenylate [poly (A)] tail is one of the most conserved modifications
of RNA molecules and is an important contributor to RNA function. In conjunction with other …

Although overlooked for many years, alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) is now
emerging as a major mechanism of gene regulation. A recent study identifies poly (A) …

Messenger RNA degradation is a vital contributor to the control of gene expression that
generally involves removal of a poly (A) tail in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. In a thought …

Lengths of the eukaryotic messenger RNA (mRNA) poly (A) tails are dynamically changed
by the opposing effects of poly (A) polymerases and deadenylases. Modulating poly (A) tail …

The posttranscriptional addition of poly (A) extensions to RNA is a phenomenon common to
almost all organisms. In eukaryotes, a stable poly (A) tail is added to the 3′‐end of most …

Although messenger RNAs are key molecules for understanding life, until now, no method
has existed to determine the full-length sequence of endogenous mRNAs including their …
