Transcription and mRNA Processing Events: the Importance of Coordination

A. Parent, I. Benzaghou, I. Bougie and M. Bisaillon

Eukaryotic mRNAs are extensively modified prior to being translated into proteins. Processing events such as RNA capping, splicing and polyadenylation are required to produce fully translatable mRNAs. Growing evidences suggest that the carboxy-terminal domain of the RNA polymerase II act as a common link between these events. The importance of coordination between transcription and RNA processing is also discussed in this mini review.
