Disease relevance of Polyadenylation

 

Psychiatry related information on Polyadenylation

  • The alternative polyadenylation of the mRNA encoding the amyloid precursor protein (APP) involved in Alzheimer's disease generates two molecules, with the first of these containing 258 additional nucleotides in the 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) [6].

Associations of Polyadenylation with chemical compounds

  • Poly(A)+ RNA transcribed from this segment in yeast terminates at multiple sites clustered just beyond an AAUAAA sequence implicated in polyadenylation of higher eucaryotic messages [27].
  • Intron 4, located 600 bases from the polyadenylation site, is excised cotranscriptionally in 5%-10% of the molecules and after or during release to the nucleoplasm in the remaining molecules [28].
  • Primer-dependent polyadenylation activity was associated exclusively with purified VP55-VP39 heterodimer, which, although stable to column chromatography and glycerol gradient sedimentation, was readily dissociated by antibody to an N-terminal peptide of VP55 [29].
  • In addition, the polyadenylation enzyme (or enzymes) cosediment with the nucleoprotein complexes during sucrose gradient centrifugation since gradient purified complexes synthesize poly(A) containing RNA in vitro in the absence of any added nuclear extract [30].
  • The polyadenylation of mRNA occurs post-transcriptionally in the nucleus as a rapid, initial addition of 100-200 adenylate residues to the pre-mRNA (ref. 1). Subsequently, a slower chain extension (6-8 bases) of the poly(A) tail seems to occur both in the nucleus and in the cytoplasm [31].
 

Gene context of Polyadenylation

  • The FIP1 gene encodes a component of a yeast pre-mRNA polyadenylation factor that directly interacts with poly(A) polymerase [32].
  • Here we show, by inserting a polyadenylation signal that truncates 96% of the RNA transcript, that Air RNA is required for silencing [33].
  • Depletion of a yeast whole-cell extract with antibodies to CFT1 protein abolished cleavage and polyadenylation of pre-mRNAs [34].
  • The observed cleavage in vitro is (i) accurate, occurring at or near the polyadenylation site of CYC1 RNA, (ii) 30 to 50 percent efficient, (iii) adenosine triphosphate dependent, (iv) specific for the 3' ends of at least two yeast pre-mRNA's, and (v) absent with related pre-mRNA's carrying mutations that abolish correct 3' end formation in vivo [35].
  • These data indicate that a tRNA surveillance pathway exists in yeast that requires Trf4p and the exosome for polyadenylation and degradation of hypomodified pre-tRNA(i)(Met) [36].
