Identification of an hnRNP A1-Dependent Splicing Silencer in the Human Papillomavirus Type 16 L1 Coding Region That Prevents Premature Expression of the Late L1 Gene
27 Sept 2004
Abstract excerpt
We have previously identified cis-acting RNA sequences in the human papillomavirus type 16 (HPV-16) L1 coding region which inhibit expression of L1 from eukaryotic expression plasmids. Here we have determined the function of one of these RNA elements, and we provide evidence that this RNA element is a splicing silencer which suppresses the use of the 3' splice site located immediately upstream of the L1 AUG. We...
