Comprehensive Polyadenylation Site Maps in Yeast and Human Reveal Pervasive Alternative Polyadenylation [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2010
The emerging discoveries on the link between polyadenylation and disease states underline the need to fully characterize genome-wide polyadenylation states. Here, we report comprehensive maps of global polyadenylation events in human and yeast generated using refinements to the Direct RNA Sequencing technology.

EFTUD2 Regulates Cortical Morphogenesis via Modulation of Caspase‐3 and Aifm1 Splicing Pathways

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
EFTUD2, a spliceosomal GTPase linked to MFDM, regulates cortical development through apoptotic control. Conditional Eftud2 knockout in murine neural stem cells induces microcephaly and cortical disorganization, while pathogenic variants drive neuronal loss.

Polyadenylation Complex CFII Recognizes Downstream Cis‐element for Pre‐mRNA Polyadenylation Through Interaction with an RNA‐Binding Protein in Arabidopsis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the cis‐element in pre‐mRNA recognized by the polyadenylation CFII complex. It elucidates how the CFII complex recognizes the consensus cis‐element downstream of the poly(A) site for pre‐mRNA alternative polyadenylation. This comprehensive research provides novel insights into the interaction between 3′ end processing complexes ...

U1 snRNP-Dependent Suppression of Polyadenylation: Physiological Role and Therapeutic Opportunities in Cancer

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cell Biology, 2013
Pre-mRNA splicing and polyadenylation are critical steps in the maturation of eukaryotic mRNA. U1 snRNP is an essential component of the splicing machinery and participates in splice-site selection and spliceosome assembly by base-pairing to the 5 ...

Identification of Alternative Polyadenylation in Cyanidioschyzon merolae Through Long-Read Sequencing of mRNA

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Alternative polyadenylation (APA) is widespread among metazoans and has been shown to have important impacts on mRNA stability and protein expression. Beyond a handful of well-studied organisms, however, its existence and consequences have not been well ...

Cu,Zn superoxide dismutase genes in Tribolium castaneum: evolution, molecular characterisation and gene expression during immune priming. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a normal consequence of the aerobic cell metabolism. Despite their high and potentially detrimental reactivity with various biomolecules, the endogenous production of ROS is a vital part of physiological,

YTHDC1 Is Essential for Postnatal Liver Development and Homeostasis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies YTHDC1 as a key regulator of postnatal liver development and disease. Hepatocyte‐specific deletion of Ythdc1 impairs hepatocyte maturation, causing liver injury, contributing to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Long Non‐Coding RNA IGFRIL Couples with PTBP1 to Destabilize IGFBP3 mRNA to Promote the IGF1R‐AKT‐mTOR Axis and Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The limited understanding of IGFR pathway activation hinders its clinical application in HCC. Here, IGFRIL is identified as a novel non‐coding activator of the IGF1R, which recruits PTBP1 to destabilize IGFBP3 mRNA and activates IGF1R, and proposes IGFRIL as a novel actionable target for HCC patients.

TAPAS: tool for alternative polyadenylation site analysis [PDF]

open access: yesBioinformatics, 2018
AbstractMotivationThe length of the 3′ untranslated region (3′ UTR) of an mRNA is essential for many biological activities such as mRNA stability, sub-cellular localization, protein translation, protein binding and translation efficiency. Moreover, correlation between diseases and the shortening (or lengthening) of 3′ UTRs has been reported in the ...
