Primer extension coupled with fragment analysis for rapid and quantitative evaluation of 5.8S rRNA isoforms.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The ribosomal RNA 5.8S is one of the four rRNAs that constitute ribosomes. In human cells, like in all eukaryotes, it derives from the extensive processing of a long precursor containing the sequence of 18S, 5.8S and 28S rRNAs. It has been confirmed also

Molecular characterization of Moniezia denticulata (Rudolphi, 1810) and its distinction from M. expansa infecting sheep and goats raised in the north and north-western regions of India

open access: yesParasitology, 2023
The tapeworms of Moniezia spp. are heteroxenous parasites and their adult forms occur in ruminants' alimentary tract. They steal a significant portion of hosts' nourishment initiating monieziasis, thereby inflicting economic losses in animal rearing ...

Small Nucleolar RNAs: Biological Functions and Diseases. [PDF]

open access: yesMedComm (2020)
The majority of snoRNAs are derived from the intron region of genes, besides to intronic snoRNAs, some snoRNAs are transcribed as independent genes, often by Pol II or III, these snoRNAs are called intergenic snoRNAs. All of these play a role in the occurrence and progression of various diseases through multiple functions.

Transcriptional repressor NIR functions in the ribosome RNA processing of both 40S and 60S subunits. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: NIR was identified as an inhibitor of histone acetyltransferase and it represses transcriptional activation of p53. NIR is predominantly localized in the nucleolus and known as Noc2p, which is involved in the maturation of the 60S ribosomal ...

A stable XPG protein is required for proper ribosome biogenesis: Insights on the phenotype of combinate Xeroderma Pigmentosum/Cockayne Syndrome patients.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2022
Nucleotide Excision Repair is one of the five DNA repair systems. More than 30 proteins are involved in this process, including the seven XP proteins. When mutated, the genes coding for these proteins are provoking the rare disease Xeroderma Pigmentosum,

U8 variants on the brain: a small nucleolar RNA and human disease

open access: yesRNA Biology, 2022
Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are non-coding RNAs vital for ribosomal RNA (rRNA) maturation. The U8 snoRNA, encoded by the SNORD118 gene in humans, is an atypical C/D box snoRNA as it promotes rRNA cleavage rather than 2′–O–methylation and is unique to ...
