To construct the expression plasmids of Flag-ZFC3H1 full length (FL) or fragments, the corresponding sequences were cloned into Flag-Phage using ClonExpress® Ultra One Step Cloning Kit (Vazyme Biotech Co., Ltd). The deletion or point mutation ZFC3H1 expression plasmids were constructed by mutagenesis using the KOD-Plus-Mutagenesis Kit (Takara). ZFC3H1-FL-ZsGreen and ZFC3H1-NP-ZsGreen were constructed by deletion of the sequence between ZFC3H1 and ZsGreen in Flag-ZFC3H1-FL and Flag-ZFC3H1-NP, respectively. Plasmids encoding Flag-eIF4A3 and Flag-DDX3 were described previously (20 (link),25 (link)). To generate construct for gene editing, sgRNA targeting ZFC3H1 was synthesized, annealed and ligated to the pX330-mCherry plasmid. The sgRNA sequence is shown in Supplementary Table S1. The Smad and β-globin constructs were described previously (28 (link)).
The CBP80, MTR4, UAP56 and ARS2 antibodies were described previously (20 (link)). Antibodies against PABPN1 (Abcam), ZFC3H1 (Novus), Flag (Sigma-Aldrich), GAPDH (Proteintech), Tubulin (Proteintech), SC35 (Sigma-Aldrich), digoxin (Roche) and SON (Thermo Fisher) were purchased. Alexa Fluor 546, Alexa Fluor 488 or Alexa Fluor 647 conjugated secondary antibodies were purchased from Life Technologies.
