Viral Regulation of mRNA Export

Abstract excerpt

Recent advances have led to an understanding of how eukaryotic mRNAs are exported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. This process involves an elaborate machinery that is conserved from yeasts to humans and is coupled to upstream events in RNA metabolism. Eukaryotic pre-mRNAs are processed after synthesis in the nucleus by capping at the 5′ end, cleavage and polyadenylation to form the 3′ end, and splicing to...
