Post Transcriptional Changes
mRNA Processing
1. Capping (addition of a 5’ 7-methyl guanosine cap)
2. Polyadenylation (addition of a poly-A tail at the 3’)
3. Splicing to remove intervening sequences (introns)
Process of Capping:
Cap Functions
Cap provides:
1. Protection from some ribonucleases degradation
2. Stabilizes mRNA
3. Enhanced translation and splicing
4. Enhanced transport from nucleus to cytoplasm
Addition of Poly –A Tail
Functions:
 The Poly A tail also provides stability
 It facilitate the exit of mRNA from the nucleus.
 After the mRNA enters the cytosol , the poly A tail is
gradually shortened
Splicing
Splicing
EXON SHUFFLING
 Some genes have exons that can be exchanged by a process
called exon shuffling.
 For example a gene with four exons might be spliced
differently in two different cell types
 In Cell type 1 : exons 2 and all introns are spliced resulting
into a protein with 1,3 and 4 exons.
 In Cell type 2 : exons 3 and all introns are spliced resulting
into a protein with 1,2 and 4 exons.
 Thus different protein types will be produced by two cell
types
 This phenomenon is known as Exon shuffling.
Processing of tRNA
 Removal of leader sequence & trailer
 Replacement of nucleotide
 Modification of certain bases:
 Splicing of an intron
Processing of ribosomal RNA
 Processing of 45s molecules occurs inside nucleolus
 45s molecules tightly associated protein forming
(RNPs)
 First cleavage: It occurs at site I & remove 5’ terminal
leader sequence, produces 41s intermediate & 18s
 Second cleavage: occurs in 41s intermediate at site 3’
generates 32s intermediate
 Final cleavage: separation of 32s intermediate into 28s,
5.8s
 Processed rRNA 28s, 5.8s & 18s
