We have isolated cDNA clones corresponding to partially processed human liver cytochrome b5 mRNAs. All the clones contained poly(A) sequences, and one clone had a shorter 3' non-translated sequence, indicating the use of an alternative poly(A)…
Multimeric AUUUA elements in an AU-rich 3'-untranslated region (3'-UTR) have been shown to confer message instability to numerous ephemeral transcripts through the formation of RNA-protein complexes. We show here that the 3'-UTR of VIP mRNA, which…
