Conservation of the deadenylase activity of proteins of the Caf1 family in human [PDF]
The yeast Pop2 protein, belonging to the eukaryotic Caf1 family, is required for mRNA deadenylation in vivo. It also catalyzes poly(A) degradation in vitro, even though this property has been questioned. Caf1 proteins are related to RNase D, a feature supported by the recently published structure of Pop2.

Heterogeneity and complexity within the nuclease module of the Ccr4-Not complex
The shortening of the poly(A) tail of cytoplasmic mRNA (deadenylation) is a pivotal step in the regulation of gene expression in eukaryotic cells. Deadenylation impacts on both regulated mRNA decay as well as the rate of mRNA translation.

The BTG4 and CAF1 complex prevents the spontaneous activation of eggs by deadenylating maternal mRNAs [PDF]
Once every menstrual cycle, eggs are ovulated into the oviduct where they await fertilization. The ovulated eggs are arrested in metaphase of the second meiotic division, and only complete meiosis upon fertilization. It is crucial that the maintenance of

In “Retrotransposons Are the Major Contributors to the Expansion of the Drosophila ananassae Muller F Element,” Leung et al. (2017) improved contigs attributed to the Muller F element from the original CAF1 assembly, and used them to conclude that most ...

Phase-field simulation of core-annular pipe flow
Phase-field methods have long been used to model the flow of immiscible fluids. Their ability to naturally capture interface topological changes is widely recognized, but their accuracy in simulating flows of real fluids in practical geometries is not ...

Chromatin structure and DNA damage repair [PDF]
The integrity of the genome is continuously challenged by both endogenous and exogenous DNA damaging agents. These damaging agents can induce a wide variety of lesions in the DNA, such as double strand breaks, single strand breaks, oxidative lesions and ...

The Not4 E3 ligase and CCR4 deadenylase play distinct roles in protein quality control. [PDF]
Eukaryotic cells control their proteome by regulating protein production and protein clearance. Protein production is determined to a large extent by mRNA levels, whereas protein degradation depends mostly upon the proteasome.

Lower bounds on entanglement measures from incomplete information
How can we quantify the entanglement in a quantum state, if only the expectation value of a single observable is given? This question is of great interest for the analysis of entanglement in experiments, since in many multiparticle experiments the state ...

Multilevel interrogation of H3.3 reveals a primordial role in transcription regulation
Background Eukaryotic cells can rapidly adjust their transcriptional profile in response to molecular needs. Such dynamic regulation is, in part, achieved through epigenetic modifications and selective incorporation of histone variants into chromatin. H3.
