Abstract excerpt
Thymidylate synthase (TS) functions as an RNA-binding protein by interacting with two different sequences on its own mRNA. One site is located in the 5'-upstream region of human TS mRNA while the second site is located within the protein coding region corresponding to nt 434-634. In this paper, a 70 nt RNA sequence, corresponding to nt 480-550, was identified that binds TS protein with an affinity similar to that...
