Taxonomic resolutions based on 18S rRNA genes: a case study of subclass copepoda. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Biodiversity studies are commonly conducted using 18S rRNA genes. In this study, we compared the inter-species divergence of variable regions (V1-9) within the copepod 18S rRNA gene, and tested their taxonomic resolutions at different taxonomic levels ...

Poly(G)7 box: a functional element of mammalian 18S rRNA involved in translation [PDF]
RNA BiologyIn eukaryotes, the ribosomal small subunit (40S) is composed of 18S rRNA and 33 ribosomal proteins. 18S rRNA has a special secondary structure and is an indispensable part of the translation process.

18S rRNA methyltransferases DIMT1 and BUD23 drive intergenerational hormesis. [PDF]
Mol Cell, 2023 Heritable non-genetic information can regulate a variety of complex phenotypes. However, what specific non-genetic cues are transmitted from parents to their descendants are poorly understood. Here, we perform metabolic methyl-labeling experiments to track the heritable transmission of methylation from ancestors to their descendants in the nematode ...

Nop9 binds the central pseudoknot region of 18S rRNA
Nucleic Acids Research, 2017 The assembly of eukaryotic ribosomes requires numerous factors that transiently associate with evolving pre-ribosomal particles. The Pumilio repeat-containing protein Nop9 briefly associates with the 90S pre-ribosome during its co-transcriptional ...

Overexpression of 18S rRNA methyltransferase CrBUD23 enhances biomass and lutein content in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023 Post-transcriptional modification of nucleic acids including transfer RNA (tRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA) and messenger RNA (mRNA) is vital for fine-tunning of mRNA translation. Methylation is one of the most widespread post-transcriptional modifications in
