  • Title: Rabbit brown adipose tissue uncoupling protein MRNA: use of only one of two polyadenylation signals in its processing.
    Author: Balogh AG, Ridley RG, Patel HV, Freeman KB.
    Journal: Biochem Biophys Res Commun; 1989 May 30; 161(1):156-61. PubMed ID: 2730654.
    Abstract:
    A cDNA containing the complete coding sequence of rabbit brown adipose tissue uncoupling protein was isolated and sequenced. The coding region is 80.6% identical to rat UCP cDNA and the protein is about 86% identical to the rat and hamster proteins. Despite the presence of 2 AATAAA polyadenylation consensus sequences in rabbit UCP cDNA, only one rabbit UCP mRNA was detected indicating that only the 3'-downstream signal is used in contrast to rat and mouse where both are used.
