Activation of a cryptic splice site in the tax gene of HTLV-I by a single nucleotide change.

Abstract:

:We identified a T-to-C mutation 2 nucleotides (nt) upstream from the AG in a GT-AG intron between exons 2 and 3 in the human T-cell leukemia virus type I (HTLV-I) tax mRNA. This mutation resulted in the preferential usage of an alternative splice site, causing a 75-nt elongation of tax mRNA and reduced production of viral antigens. When the clone containing this T-to-C mutation was reverted to the wild-type (T) DNA sequence, normal splicing of tax mRNA ensued and viral production was restored. These results suggest that the nucleotide at the position 2nt upstream from the AG in a GT-AG intron is important for the proper splicing of the HTLV-I tax gene, although it is not considered important for splicing in eukaryotes.

  • The two ages of the RNA world, and the transition to the DNA world: a story of viruses and cells.

Recent findings from structural studies and comparative genomics now allow to get a clearer picture of this transition. These data suggest ...
