Abstract excerpt
The 3'-end of histone mRNAs contains a highly conserved sequence motif which is believed to form a 6 base pair stem and a 4 base loop. These sequences are involved in both the efficiency of 3'-end formation and stability of the mature histone mRNA. We have modeled four stem basepairs and the loop portion of this structure using the wildtype sequences and several mutant sequences. A structure for the wildtype...
