PABPN1 shuts down alternative poly(A) sites

Although overlooked for many years, alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) is now emerging as a major mechanism ofgene regulation. A recent study identifies poly(A)- binding protein nuclear 1 (PABPN1), a general factor of polyadenylation, as a suppressor of alternative poly(A) sites....

A recent study identifies poly(A)- binding protein nuclear 1 (PABPN1), a general factor of polyadenylation, as a suppressor of alternative poly(A) sites.
