摘要

Insertions of the maize transposable element Robertson's Mutator (Mu) into intron 1 of the Adh1 gene have produced a number of mutant alleles altered in quantitative expression. It has previously been shown that transcription and mRNA accumulation are reduced for two of these alleles, Adh1-S3034 and Adh1-S4477. In this report, we describe the presence of Mu1-hybridizing polyadenylated transcripts in roots of anaerobically induced seedlings of these same mutants. Sequence analysis of Mu1-hybridizing clones from a cDNA library of S3034 RNA indicated that these transcripts originated from the Adh1 locus and were produced by alternative processing of S3034 pre-mRNA. Approximately half of the cDNAs represented transcripts that had not undergone excision of the intron containing the 1.4-kilobase Mu1 insertion but were processed in response to signals present in the transposable element. Mu1 contains a donor splice site in the 5'-terminal inverted repeat that can be joined to the Adh1 exon 2 acceptor, resulting in removal of most of the Mu1 sequences from the pre-mRNA; alternatively this donor can be spliced to an acceptor within Mu1, removing an 89-nucleotide intron. Mu1 also contains polyadenylation signals that are used to produce truncated transcripts. These Mu1 transcripts produced by aberrant splicing and polyadenylation were not detected in RNA isolated from developing kernels.
