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 …

The addition of poly (A)-tails to RNA is a process common to almost all organisms. In
eukaryotes, stable poly (A)-tails, important for mRNA stability and translation initiation, are …

Polyadenylation of RNA is a posttranscriptional modification that can play two somewhat
opposite roles: stable polyadenylation of RNA encoded in the nuclear genomes of eukaryote …

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

Post-transcriptional addition of poly (A) tails to the 3′ end of RNA is one of the fundamental
events controlling the functionality and fate of RNA in all kingdoms of life. Although an …

Polyadenylation is a postranscriptional modification of RNA found in all cells and in
organelles. In bacteria, a small fraction of RNA harbors oligo (A) tails which are mostly …

This chapter provides detailed methodologies for isolating total RNA and polyadenylated
RNA from E. coli and other prokaryotes, along with the procedures necessary to analyze the …

Polyadenylation at the 3′ ends of mRNAs, tRNAs, rRNAs, and sRNAs plays important roles
in RNA metabolism in both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. However, the nature of poly (A) tails …

There has been rapid progress over the past 3-4 years in elucidating the functions of the
poly (A) tail in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes. As a large number of previous experiments …

RNA polyadenylation serves a purpose in bacteria and organelles opposite from the role it
plays in nuclear systems. The majority of nucleus-encoded transcripts are characterized by …
