The 5’ cap of most mRNA is monomethylated, but some small noncoding RNAs are trimethylated.

#Unit 3. Fundamental Processes

Small ncRNAs involved in RNA splicing in the spliceosome are trimethylated at terminal guanine. This structure is called a trimethylated cap. The enzymes for these additional methyl transfers are present in the cytoplasm.

SL RNA (Trans-splicing) carries a trimethylated cap, which is recognized by the variant cap-binding factor eIF4E to facilitate translation.

#Unit 3. Fundamental Processes

Polyadenylation requires a protein complex that contains a specificity factor, an endonuclease, and poly(A) polymerase.
