A T7 terminator of pet28a plasmid.
Summary
Terminator regions, which are located downstream of protein coding sequences, encode 3′ untranslated regions (3′-UTRs) of mRNA. Terminator regions are usually involved in two complex events: ″transcriptional termination″, which involves the cleavage of 3′-mRNA and poly(A) addition and ″post-transcriptional regulation″, in which the 3′-UTR determines the stability, translational efficiency, and localization of the mRNA. Sequence and structural cis-elements located in the 3′-UTR of mRNA transcripts interact with RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) to post-transcriptionally regulate various aspects of gene expression including mRNA localization, translation, and decay.
