Fast-Find: A novel computational approach to analyzing combinatorial motifs

BMC Bioinformatics, 2006
Background Many vital biological processes, including transcription and splicing, require a combination of short, degenerate sequence patterns, or motifs, adjacent to defined sequence features.

Expression of mutant TIE2 p.L914F during mouse development causes embryonic lethality and defects in vascular remodeling

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sporadic venous malformation (VM) is associated with the hyperactivating p.L914F mutation in TIE2, a receptor tyrosine kinase essential for vascular development. This mutation is not found in hereditary VM, suggesting incompatibility with life when expressed during early vascular development.

The bidirectional interplay between RNA processing and mechanotransduction

Cell Reports
Summary: Through mechanotransduction, cells sense and respond to mechanical stimuli from their environment. A mechanical stimulus is first detected by a mechanosensor, then converted into a biochemical signal, which can ultimately control the expression ...

Discovery of novel human transcript variants by analysis of intronic single-block EST with polyadenylation site

BMC Genomics, 2009
Background Alternative polyadenylation sites within a gene can lead to alternative transcript variants. Although bioinformatic analysis has been conducted to detect polyadenylation sites using nucleic acid sequences (EST/mRNA) in the public databases ...

Bridging maternal effects and epitranscriptomics: A novel perspective in developmental biology

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Maternal effects, encompassing both genetic (maternally expressed gene products) and non‐genetic (maternal state) influences, are powerful determinants of offspring phenotype, yet their RNA‐level mechanisms remain incompletely resolved. In parallel, epitranscriptomics, an emerging field centered on chemical modifications to RNA, has revealed ...

RNA degradomics and proteomics reveal the mechanism of dsProsβ1‐mediated proteasome targeting in Psylliodes chrysocephala

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.
RNA degradomics revealed dsProsβ1‐derived siRNA‐mediated mRNA cleavage events, mainly at uracil‐guanine and adenine‐adenine pairs. Proteasome inhibition via dsProsβ1 increased mitochondrial and cytoskeletal proteins while reducing translation‐related and mRNA‐binding proteins.

Full‐length transcriptome profiling of true bug mitochondrial genomes reveals the unique transcriptional regulation during insect evolution

Insect Science, EarlyView.
The mitogenome was transcribed into complete primary polycistrons on both strands. The heteropteran mitochondrial transcription termination factor (HmTTF) functions as a bidirectional attenuator rather than a terminator, and co‐evolution of HmTTF and the binding sites was observed.

Alternative Polyadenylation Drives Runaway Pro‐Inflammatory Macrophages in Periodontitis by Enabling Escape From miRNA Repression

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
APA‐Guided Therapeutic miRNA Selection for Periodontitis. ABSTRACT Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease driven by a dysregulated host immune response, in which macrophage‐mediated inflammation shifts from protective to pathological. While monocyte‐derived macrophages (MDMs) are known to adopt a destructive, M1‐like pro‐inflammatory phenotype,

Parvovirus RNA Processing: Compact Genomic Organization and Unique Alternative mRNA Processing Mechanisms

Viruses
Parvoviruses have compact genomic organizations with overlapping open reading frames and thus utilize alternative RNA processing strategies, alternative splicing, alternative polyadenylation, and alternative translation mechanisms to generate a range of ...

Co‐localization of tau and TDP‐43 after extracellular vesicle delivery to cells

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from donor cells transfected with EGFP–2N4R‐tau or mCherry‐wtTDP‐43 were taken up by recipient cells, leading to cytosolic co‐localization of tau and TDP‐43. Molecular modeling revealed that tau and TDP‐43 directly interact through hydrogen bonding, suggesting a mechanistic link underlying their co‐pathology ...
