Abstract
S1 nuclease mapping revealed lacZ mRNA molecules whose 5' and 3' ends were internal to the transcription start and consistent with cleavages at pyrimidine-adenosine bonds 20 to 50 nucleotides apart. With the net 5'-to-3' direction known, lacZ mRNA is probably degraded by sequential cleavages of naked mRNA at vulnerable sites exposed by transit of the last translating ribosome.Entities:
