epitope corresponding to amino acids 1-300 mapping at the N-terminus of PAP-α of human origin
Modification Notes
Polyadenylation of the 3-prime ends of eukaryotic mRNAs is a key event that takes place in the nucleus during maturation of mRNA. The reaction occurs in 2 distinct steps: endoribonucleolytic cleavage of the pre-RNA at the poly(A) site, followed by synthesis of the poly(A) tail at the 3-prime end of the upstream cleavage product. The poly(A) polymerase (PAP) is required for the adenosine addition reaction. Western blot analysis reveals three PAPs, demonstrating different molecular masses in HeLa cell extracts. The amino-terminal region of PAP is required for nonspecific polymerase activity, while both the amino and carboxy termini are required for specific polymerase activity. Additionally, PAP contains a functional ribonucleoprotein-type RNA binding domain (RBD) that is responsible for primer binding. The gene which encodes PAP maps to human chromosome 14q32.1-q32.2..
