Abstract excerpt
Eukaryotic mature mRNAs possess a poly adenylate tail (poly(A)), to which multiple molecules of poly(A)-binding protein C1 (PABPC1) bind. PABPC1 regulates translation and mRNA metabolism by binding to regulatory proteins. To understand functional mechanism of the regulatory proteins, it is necessary to reveal how multiple molecules of PABPC1 exist on poly(A). Here, we characterize the structure of the multiple...
