A functional human Poly(A) site requires only a potent DSE and an A-rich upstream sequence

We have analysed the sequences required for cleavage and polyadenylation in the intronless melanocortin 4 receptor (MC4R) pre-mRNA. Unlike other intronless genes, 3′end processing of the MC4R primary transcript is independent of any auxiliary sequence elements and only requires the core poly(A) sequ...
