The sequence at the 3' terminus of mouse immunoglobulin secreted mu chain messenger RNA determined from cloned cDNA.
The 3' terminal nucleotide sequence of two clones containing DNA complementary to mu chain mRNA of IgM-secreting cells has been determined. The sequence shows a termination codon (UGA) adjacent to the terminal tyrosine codon for the secreted protein and a 3' non-coding region of at least 106 bases. The primary translation product of this mu chain mRNA seems to terminate at the tyrosine of the secreted protein.
