Pre-mRNA processing enhancer (PPE) elements from intronless genes play additional roles in mRNA biogenesis than do ones from intron-containing genes
Most mRNA-encoding genes require introns for efficient expression in high eukaryotes. However, mRNAs can efficiently accumulate in the cytoplasm without intron excision if they contain cis-acting elements such as the post-transcriptional regulatory element (PRE) of hepatitis B virus (HBV), the const...
