Nuclear RNA-protein interactions and messenger RNA processing
نویسنده
چکیده
Eucaryotic messenger RNA precursors are processed in nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles (hnRNP). Here recent work on the structure of hnRNP is reviewed, with emphasis on function. Detailed analysis of a specific case, the altered assembly of hnRNP in heat-shocked Drosophila and mammalian cells, leads to a general hypothesis linking hnRNP structure and messenger RNA processing.

Nuclear networking fashions pre-messenger RNA and primary microRNA transcripts for function.
The expression of protein-coding genes is enhanced by the exquisite coupling of transcription by RNA polymerase II with pre-messenger RNA processing reactions, such as 5'-end capping, splicing and 3'-end formation. Integration between cotranscriptional processing events extends beyond the nucleus, as proteins that bind cotranscriptionally can affect the localization, translation and degradation...

متن کاملPost-Transcriptional Regulation by Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of the RNA-Binding Proteins
Gene expression is intricately regulated at the post-transcriptional level by RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) via their interactions with pre-messenger RNA (pre-mRNA) and mRNA during development. However, very little is known about the mechanism regulating RBP activities in RNA metabolism. During the past few years, a large body of evidence has suggested that many RBPs, such as heterogeneous nuclea...
متن کاملPre-Messenger RNA Processing Factors in the Drosophila Genome
In eukaryotes, messenger RNAs are generated by a process that includes coordinated splicing and 3 9 end formation. Factors essential for the splicing of mRNA precursors (pre-mRNA) 1 in eukaryotes have been identified primarily through the study of nuclear extracts derived from mammalian cells and Saccharomyces cerevisiae genetics. Here, we identify homologues of most known pre-mRNA processing f...
متن کاملRules of engagement: co-transcriptional recruitment of pre-mRNA processing factors.
The universal pre-mRNA processing events of 5' end capping, splicing, and 3' end formation by cleavage/polyadenylation occur co-transcriptionally. As a result, the substrate for mRNA processing factors is a nascent RNA chain that is being extruded from the RNA polymerase II exit channel at 10-30 bases per second. How do processing factors find their substrate RNAs and complete most mRNA maturat...
