Intron creation and polyadenylation in maize are directed by AU-rich RNA

Intron recognition in Angiosperms is hypothesized to require AU-rich motifs within introns. In this report we examined the role of AU-rich motifs in pre-mRNA processing. AU-rich segments of maize introns inserted near the single intron of the maize Bronze-2(Bz2) gene result in alternative splicing....
