Binding of globin mRNA, beta-globin mRNA segments and RNA homopolymers by immobilized protein of polysomal globin messenger ribonucleoprotein 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
The binding of rabbit globin mRNA, in-vitro-generated beta-globin mRNA segments, and RNA homopolymers by proteins of rabbit reticulocyte polysomal messenger ribonucleoproteins (mRNP) after SDS gel electrophoresis and electroblotting was examined. The polysomal mRNP proteins have a higher affinity for mRNA than for rRNA and tRNA while having a higher affinity for polypurine than polypyrimidine homopolymers. Binding experiments with synthetic poly(A) and with segments of beta-globin mRNA transcribed from a cDNA in vitro revealed a set of polysomal mRNP proteins which preferentially bind the poly(A)-free beta-globin mRNA. A protein of Mr 90,000 binds specifically the 3'-nontranslated trailer of the poly(A)-free beta-globin mRNA and not the poly(A)-containing globin mRNA. Another set of proteins preferentially binds poly(A). The latter group of proteins contains a prominent species of Mr 72,000, which is most likely the rabbit poly(A)-binding protein. Three polysomal mRNP proteins which bound rabbit globin mRNA did not bind preferentially any of the other RNA probes used. 相似文献

We have examined how splicing affects the expression of a range of human and nonhuman genes in vertebrate cells. Although our data demonstrate that splicing invariably enhances the level of gene expression, this positive effect is generally moderate. However, in the case of the human beta-globin gene, splicing is essential for significant protein expression. In the absence of introns, 3' end processing is inefficient, and this appears to be causally linked to a significant decrease in the level of both nuclear and cytoplasmic 3' end-processed RNA. In contrast, splicing appears to only modestly enhance nuclear mRNA export. Consistent with this observation, intronless beta-globin gene expression was only partially rescued by the insertion of retroviral nuclear mRNA export elements. Surprisingly, in the case of the highly intron dependent beta-globin gene, the mRNA that did reach the cytoplasm was also only inefficiently translated if it derived from an intronless expression plasmid. Together, these data argue that splicing can increase gene expression by enhancing mRNA 3' end processing, and hence, mRNA production. Moreover, in the case of the highly intron-dependent beta-globin gene, splicing also significantly enhanced the translational utilization of cytoplasmic beta-globin mRNAs. 相似文献
