Fig. 8. The C-terminus of PABPN1 is necessary for stimulation of poly(A) polymerase. Polyadenylation reactions containing radioactively labeled A70 (40 fmol of 3′-ends) and poly(A) polymerase (30 fmol) were incubated with increasing amounts of wild-type or C-terminal truncation variants of PABPN1 as indicated. Lane 1, untreated A70; lane 2, incubation with a 10-fold higher amount of poly(A) polymerase; lanes 3–11, 13–20, 21–28, 29–35, reactions with 0, 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000, 5000 and 10000 fmol of PABPN1 variants, as indicated. The reaction in the presence of 100 fmol of PABPN1-ΔC27 was left out. Products were analyzed on a denaturing polyacrylamide gel.
