U1A protein inhibits polyadenylation of its pre-mRNA U1A protein binds U1snRNA: 7-base sequence-U1A binding site
U1A protein inhibits polyadenylation of its pre-mRNA U1A binding site 2 copies in its own mRNA , at 3' end near the poly(A) signal prevent polyadenylation, but not the cleavage of pre-mRNA rapidly degraded
U1A protein inhibits polyadenylation of its pre-mRNA - prevent polyadenylation, but not the cleavage of pre-mRNA truncated mRNA without poly(A) tail, rapidly degraded
RNA editing in mammalian apo-B (apolipoprotein B), serum protein of lipid transporter, CAA UAA, glutamine stop codon, in intestine both liver and intestine forms transport lipid only liver apo-B delivers cholesterol containing LDL
RNA editing in glutamate receptor mRNA Na+, Ca+2 ion channel, learning and memory CAG CIG, glutamate arginine, Ca +2 cannot pass Both editing of apo-B and glutamate receptor by RNA deaminases
Iron dependent regulation of TfR mRNA stability. when iron ion high, IRE -BP inactive, cannot bind IRE, TfR mRNA is protected from degradation; when iron is low, IRE-BP is active and binds IRE. then TfR mRNA stability , TfR mRNA degraded
Iron dependent regulation of translation of ferritin stability. ferritin is an intracellular protein that binds iron ions ferritin, 5' IRE free of BP, translation occurs, more ferritin. The IRE in ferritin mRNA has no AU rich
