Abstract excerpt
The Suppressor of forked (Su(f)) protein of Drosophila melanogaster is a homologue of the 77K subunit of human cleavage stimulation factor required for cleavage of pre-mRNAs before addition of poly(A). We have previously shown that the Su(f) protein is not ubiquitously distributed: it accumulates in dividing cells at various stages of Drosophila development. In this paper, we show that phenotypes of su(f)...
