Transcript of Organization of the NPC. Specificity Models of the NPC Brownian GateSelective Phase‘Oily...
Week 2: RNA maturation transport, & localization
RNA export to the cytoplasm: model systems
RNA degradation
Links between RNA processing, transport, degradationRNA localization in the cytoplasm
RNA processing: brief overview
Specific process for Pol II transcripts
nuclear CBC binds to m7G-cap: role in splicing, transport, stability (exchanged in cytoplasm)
Function in transport, stability, translation
CPSF: cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor
CStF: cleavage stimulatory factor
CF: cleavage factor
PAP: polyA polymerase
PAB: polyA binding protein
Function in transport, stability, translation
SUMMARY
I. Multiple steps of mRNA biosynthesis are tightly coupled
II. Mex67/TAP is one major mRNA export factorBinding to mRNA may already occur at the site of transcription
III. Many questions remain- How are mRNA substrates released in the cytoplasm? - Are there multiple mRNA export pathways?- How is processing and transport coupled?etc.
