Decoupled degradation and translation enables noise-modulation by poly(A)-tails
2024-02-26
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> Poly(A)-tails are crucial for mRNA translation and degradation, but the exact relationship between tail length and mRNA kinetics remains unclear. Here we employ a small library of identical mRNAs that differ only in their poly(A)-tail length to examine their behavior in human embryonic kidney cells. We find that tail length strongly correlates with mRNA degradation rates, but is decoupled from tr...
