Abstract excerpt
B-cell differentiation is accompanied by a dramatic increase in cytoplasmic accumulation and stability of the IgM heavy chain (mu) secretory mRNA. Despite considerable effort, the mechanism is unknown. We have identified three short motifs upstream of the secretory poly(A) site, which, when mutated in the mu heavy chain gene, significantly increase the accumulation of the secretory form of poly(A)(+) mRNA...
