Proweller A, Butler S
Abstract excerpt
The polyadenylate tail of eukaryotic mRNAs is thought to influence various metabolic phenomena including mRNA stability, translation initiation, and nucleo-cytoplasmic transport. We have analyzed the fate of mRNAs following inactivation of poly(A) polymerase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing a temperature-sensitive, lethal mutation (pap1-1) in the gene for poly(A) polymerase (PAP1). Inactivation of poly(A)...
