A catalogue of splice junction sequences

TL;DR: The sequence CAAG/GTAGAGT was found to be a consensus of 139 exon-intron boundaries (or donor sequences) and (TC)nNCTAG/G was found of 130 intron-exon boundaries ( or acceptor sequences).

Abstract: Splice junction sequences from a large number of nuclear and viral genes encoding protein have been collected. The sequence CAAG/GTAGAGT was found to be a consensus of 139 exon-intron boundaries (or donor sequences) and (TC)nNCTAG/G was found to be a consensus of 130 intron-exon boundaries (or acceptor sequences). The possible role of splice junction sequences as signals for processing is discussed.

Structure and induction of a lysozyme gene from the tabacco hornworm, manduca sexta
Amy B. Mulnix,Peter E. Dunn +1 more
TL;DR: Results of Northern blot analyses using this cDNA as a probe indicated that the abundance of lysozyme transcripts increased in seven tissues following treatment with peptidoglycan, with the highest level of accumulation occurring in the fat body.

TL;DR: A 26 kd protein reactive with antiserum to the transactivator tat of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 has been detected in virus producing cells and is shown to be a tripartite fusion protein including coding sequences of the tat, envelope and regulator of virion expression (rev) genes.

Infectivity and complete nucleotide sequence of the genome of a South African isolate of maize streak virus.
TL;DR: The complete infectious genome of a South African isolate of the geminivirus maize streak (MSV-S) has been cloned, characterized, and sequenced, and the cloned -2.7 kb single circular MSV component was shown to be necessary and sufficient for infection of maize.
Spliced leader RNA sequences can substitute for the essential 5′ end of U1 RNA during splicing in a mammalian in vitro system
James P. Bruzik,Joan A. Steitz +1 more
TL;DR: It is shown that sequences responsible for recognition of the 5' splice site can be relocated within the splicing substrate itself reinforces the similarity between group II self-splicing and spliceosome-mediated pre-mRNA splicing.

Are snRNPs involved in splicing
TL;DR: Several lines of evidence are presented that suggest a direct involvement of snRNPs in the splicing of hnRNA molecules, including the observation that the nucleotide sequence at the 5′ end of U1 RNA exhibits extensive complementarity to those across splice junctions in hn RNA molecules.

Ovalbumin gene: evidence for a leader sequence in mRNA and DNA sequences at the exon-intron boundaries.
TL;DR: Selected regions of cloned EcoRI fragments of the chicken ovalbumin gene have been sequenced, and a previously unreported interruption in the DNA sequences coding for the 5' nontranslated region of the messenger has been discovered.

Sequence of the human insulin gene
Graeme I. Bell,Raymond Pictet,William J. Rutter,Barbara Cordell,Edmund Tischer,Howard M. Goodman +5 more
TL;DR: A comparison of the human with the rat insulin genes indicates potential regulatory regions in the DNA segment preceding the gene and suggests that the ancestral form of the insulin gene had two intervening sequences.

Cloned human and mouse kappa immunoglobulin constant and J region genes conserve homology in functional segments.
TL;DR: The procedure to clone the human kappa chain genes in both germline and rearranged configurations is described and four human J regions are identified that are much more stringently conserved throughout their coding sequences than are the C region genes.
