We have conducted an extensive linker substitution analysis of the polyadenylation signal
from a pea rbcS gene. From these studies, we can identify at least two, and perhaps three …

We have characterized the upstream nucleotide sequences involved in mRNA 3'-end
formation in the 3'regions of the cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) 19S/35S transcription unit …

Once transcribed, most eukaryotic mRN As receive a poly (A) tail at their 3'ends through a
process involving the cleavage of precursor RNA and the concomitant polymerization of …

The requirement for sequence specificity in the AAUAAA motif of the cauliflower mosaic virus
(CaMV) polyadenylation signal was examined by saturation mutagenesis. While deletion of …

The following aspects of mRNA 3′ end formation, an important process in gene expression
in eukaryotic cells which initiates transcription termination, are reviewed: the structure of …

A plant polyadenylation signal consists of three distinct components: a far-upstream element
(FUE) that can control utilization of several polyadenylation sites, one or more near …

A comparison of Arabidopsis DNA sequences revealed that the final nucleotides at the 3′
end of approximately half of the Arabidopsis mRNAs, immediately upstream of the poly (A) …

Two cis-regulatory regions are required for efficient mRNA 3′-end processing of the maize
27-kDa zein mRNA: a region containing a duplicated AAUGAA poly (A) signal and a region …

The specific RNA-protein interactions responsible for the production of mature 3′ ends of
eukaryotic mRNAs are not well understood. Sequence elements at the 3′ ends of yeast …

Our understanding of how the 3′ ends of mRNAs are formed in plants is rudimentary
compared to what we know about this process in other eukaryotes. The salient features of …
