Polyadenylation in RNA Degradation Processes in Plants

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Non Coding RNAs in Plants

Part of the book series: RNA Technologies ((RNATECHN))

Abstract

Although polyadenylation is best known for stabilizing eukaryotic mRNAs and promoting their translation, the primordial role of polyadenylation is to target RNAs for degradation by 3′→5′ exoribonucleases. This ancient mechanism is conserved among bacteria and eukaryotes, and in plants, polyadenylation-assisted RNA degradation operates in the nucleus, the chloroplast, and the mitochondrion. Polyadenylation-assisted RNA degradation contributes to maturation, turnover, and quality control of a variety of transcripts, the nature of which varies in the different genetic compartments of the plant cell. Moreover, polyadenylation-assisted RNA degradation rapidly removes a large variety of novel transcripts of unknown function that are produced by extensive transcription of extragenic regions, in particular from nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. In this chapter, we review the current knowledge of polyadenylation-assisted RNA degradation in plants, highlighting the different impact of this RNA degradation pathway on the expression of nuclear, plastidial, or mitochondrial genomes.
