The Role of Viral Proteins in the Regulation of Exosomes Biogenesis
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2021 Exosomes are membrane-bound vesicles of endocytic origin, secreted into the extracellular milieu, in which various biological components such as proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids reside.

Emerging connections between small RNAs and phytohormones [PDF]
, 2020 Small RNAs (sRNAs), mainly including miRNAs and siRNAs, are ubiquitous in eukaryotes. sRNAs mostly negatively regulate gene expression via (post-)transcriptional gene silencing through DNA methylation, mRNA cleavage, or translation inhibition.

Increasing cell density globally enhances the biogenesis of Piwi-interacting RNAs in Bombyx mori germ cells. [PDF]
, 2017 Piwi proteins and their bound Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are predominantly expressed in the germline and play crucial roles in germline development by silencing transposons and other targets.

The biogenesis pathway of tRNA-derived piRNAs in Bombyx germ cells. [PDF]
, 2017 Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) function in translational machinery and further serves as a source of short non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). tRNA-derived ncRNAs show differential expression profiles and play roles in many biological processes beyond translation ...

Lipids or Proteins: Who Is Leading the Dance at Membrane Contact Sites?
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019 Understanding the mode of action of membrane contact sites (MCSs) across eukaryotic organisms at the near-atomic level to infer function at the cellular and tissue levels is a challenge scientists are currently facing. These peculiar systems dedicated to

Current Studies of Mitochondrial Quality Control in the Preeclampsia
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 Mitochondria are cellular energy powerhouses that play important roles in regulating cellular processes. Mitochondrial quality control (mQC), including mitochondrial biogenesis, mitophagy, mitochondrial fusion and fission, maintains physiological demand ...

Retrograde trafficking of Argonaute 2 acts as a rate-limiting step for de novo miRNP formation on endoplasmic reticulum–attached polysomes in mammalian cells [PDF]
, 2020 microRNAs are short regulatory RNAs in metazoan cells. Regulation of miRNA activity and abundance is evident in human cells where availability of target messages can influence miRNA biogenesis by augmenting the Dicer1-dependent processing of precursors ...
