Abstract excerpt
To study the role of base-pairing between the mammalian U7 snRNA and the highly variable histone downstream element (HDE) during the 3'-end maturation of mammalian histone pre-mRNAs, we mutated the HDE of the mouse H2A-614 gene and assayed processing in HeLa cells both in vivo and in vitro. Either a 9-nucleotide deletion or a block substitution of pyrimidines for 6 purines within the HDE abolished all 3'-end...
