Abstract: The cleavage/polyadenylation factor I (CF I) is one of four factors required for mRNA 3' end formation in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Here we describe the purification of CF I and its separation into two components, CF IA and CF IB. Both components are needed to reconstitute CF I activity in cleavage and poly(A) addition. CF IA consists of a complex of four polypeptides of 76, 70, 50, and 38 kDa, and CF IB is a single 73-kDa polypeptide. The 76- and 38-kDa subunits of CF IA correspond to the previously identified RNA14 and RNA15 proteins. The RNA14 protein, but not the 70- or 50-kDa proteins, coimmunoprecipitates with the RNA15 protein, indicating that RNA14 and RNA15 proteins exist in a tight complex. RNA15 is the only subunit of CF I that can be cross-linked to pre-mRNA.
