Identification and functional characterization of neo-poly(A) polymerase, an RNA processing enzyme overexpressed in human tumors.
Poly(A) polymerase (PAP) plays an essential role in polyadenylation of mRNA precursors, and it has long been thought that mammalian cells contain only a single PAP gene. We describe here the unexpected existence of a human PAP, which we call neo-PAP, encoded by a previously uncharacterized gene. cDN...
