Metazoan replication-dependent (RD) histone genes encode the only known cellular mRNAs that are not polyadenylated. These mRNAs end instead in a conserved stem-loop, which is formed by an endonucleolytic cleavage of the pre-mRNA. The genes for all 5 histone proteins are clustered in all metazoans and coordinately regulated with high levels of expression during S phase. Production of histone mRNAs occurs in a nuclear body called the Histone Locus Body (HLB), a subdomain of the nucleus defined by a concentration of factors necessary for histone gene transcription and pre-mRNA processing. These factors include the scaffolding protein NPAT, essential for histone gene transcription, and FLASH and U7 snRNP, both essential for histone pre-mRNA processing. Histone gene expression is activated by Cyclin E/Cdk2-mediated phosphorylation of NPAT at the G1-S transition. The concentration of factors within the HLB couples transcription with pre-mRNA processing, enhancing the efficiency of histone mRNA biosynthesis.
