ABSTRACT:
A chimeric RNA molecule comprising at least one pre-mRNA processing element is disclosed. A gene construct comprising a DNA sequence encoding at least one pre-mRNA processing enhancer is also disclosed. A method of enhancing cytoplasmic RNA accumulation is disclosed. This method comprises the step of inserting a DNA sequence encoding the RNA into the vector described and expressing the DNA sequence.
