Dehydration stress extends mRNA 3' untranslated regions with noncoding RNA functions in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
The 3′ untranslated regions (3′ UTRs) of mRNAs play important roles in the regulation of mRNA localization, translation, and stability. Alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA) generates mRNAs with different 3′ UTRs, but the involvement of this ...

Tomato torrado virus (ToTV) induces severe systemic necrosis in Solanum lycopersicum. This work aimed at describing the genetic variability of necrosis-inducing ToTV-Wal’17 collected in 2017, derived from the ToTV-Wal’03 after long-term passages in ...

The 3' untranslated regions of influenza genomic sequences are 5'PPP-independent ligands for RIG-I. [PDF]
Retinoic acid inducible gene-I (RIG-I) is a key regulator of antiviral immunity. RIG-I is generally thought to be activated by ssRNA species containing a 5'-triphosphate (PPP) group or by unphosphorylated dsRNA up to ~300 bp in length. However, it is not

Characterization of Single Nucleotide Variants of OPN3 Gene in Melanocytic Nevi and Melanoma
In this study, we examined single nucleotide variants (SNVs) of the OPN3 gene in malignant melanoma and melanocytic nevi. A total of 20 variants of SNVs were detected.

Regulation of CCN1 via the 3′-untranslated region [PDF]
The 3'-untranslated region (UTR) is known to be a critical regulator of post-transcriptional events that determine the gene expression at the RNA level. The gene CCN1 is one of the classical members of the matricellular CCN family and is involved in a number of biological processes during mammalian development.

Transcriptional Repression, a Novel Function for 3' Untranslated Regions [PDF]
The transcription rates of the rat serine protease inhibitor 2.3 and 2.1 genes (spi 2.3 and spi 2.1), which are normally very low and high, respectively, are inversely modulated during inflammation. Two growth‐hormone‐response elements (GHRE‐I and GHRE‐II) maintain the spi 2.1 gene under the stringent control of growth hormone [Le Cam, A., Pantescu, V.,

The ODC 3′-Untranslated Region and 5′-Untranslated Region Contain cis-Regulatory Elements: Implications for Carcinogenesis [PDF]
It has been hypothesized that both the 3′-untranslated region (3′UTR) and the 5′-untranslated region (5′UTR) of the ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) mRNA influence the expression of the ODC protein. Here, we use luciferase expression constructs to examine the influence of both UTRs in keratinocyte derived cell lines. The ODC 5′UTR or 3′UTR was cloned into

Erythrocyte complement receptor 1 (CR1) expression level is not associated with polymorphisms in the promoter or 3' untranslated regions of the CR1 gene [PDF]
Complement receptor 1 (CR1) expression level on erythrocytes is genetically determined and is associated with high (H) and low (L) expression alleles identified by a HindIII restriction fragment-length polymorphism (RFLP) in intron 27 of the CR1 gene ...

A novel class of microRNA-recognition elements that function only within open reading frames. [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are well known to target 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) in mRNAs, thereby silencing gene expression at the post-transcriptional level.
