5'-mRNA capping is an early modification that affects pre-mRNA synthesis/splicing, RNA cytoplasmictransport, and mRNA translation and turnover. In eukaryotes. a 7-methylguanosine (m7G) cap is added to newlytranscribed RNA polymerase II (RNAP II)transcripts. A subset of RNAP Il-transcribed cellular RNAs. including small nuclear RNA (snRNA), small nucleolar RNA (snoRNA), and telomerase RNA. is further hypermethylated at the exocyclic N2 of the guanosine to create a trimethylguanosine (TMG)-capped RNA. Some of these TMG-capped RNA5 are transported within the nucleus and from the nucleus to the cytoplasm by the CRM-1 (required for chromo- some region maintenance) protein. CRM-1 is also used to export Rev/RRE-dependent unspliced/ partially spliced HIV-1 RNA5. Here we report that like snRNAs and snoRNAs, some Rev/RRE-dependent HIV-1 RNAs are TMG-capped. The methyltransferase responsible for TMG modification of HIV-1 RNAs is the human PIMT (peroxisome pro- liferator-activated receptor-interacting protein with methyltransfer- ase) protein. 1MG capping of unspliced/partially spliced HIV-1 RNA5 represents a new regulatory mechanism for selective expression.
