Cytoplasmic deadenylase Ccr4 is required for translational repression of LRG1 mRNA in the stationary phase [PDF]
Ccr4 is a major cytoplasmic deadenylase involved in mRNA poly(A) tail shortening in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We have previously shown that Ccr4 negatively regulates expression of LRG1 mRNA encoding a GTPase-activating protein for the small GTPase Rho1 ...

Aggravation of lipopolysaccharide-induced depressive-like behavior in CCR4-deficient mice
Increasing evidence indicates that immune abnormalities are associated with the pathogenesis of depression. CCR4 is a chemokine receptor that regulates regulatory T cell (Treg) and Th17 cell migration.

The multifunctional Ccr4–Not complex directly promotes transcription elongation [PDF]
The Ccr4–Not complex has been implicated in the control of multiple steps of mRNA metabolism; however, its functions in transcription remain ambiguous. The discovery that Ccr4/Pop2 is the major cytoplasmic mRNA deadenylase and the detection of Not proteins within mRNA processing bodies have raised questions about the roles of the Ccr4–Not complex in ...

Identification of ebs1, lsm6 and nup159 as suppressors of spt10 effects at ADH2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae suggests post-transcriptional defects affect mRNA synthesis [PDF]
Suppression of the effects of an spt10 mutation on ADH2 expression is a phenotype shared by a small number of genes whose protein products are either components of the CCR4-NOT complex required for mRNA deadenylation and degradation (CCR4, CAF1, NOT4) or

The CCR4–NOT complex maintains liver homeostasis through mRNA deadenylation [PDF]
The biological significance of deadenylation in global gene expression is not fully understood. Here, we show that the CCR4–NOT deadenylase complex maintains expression of mRNAs, such as those encoding transcription factors, cell cycle regulators, DNA damage response–related proteins, and metabolic enzymes, at appropriate levels in the liver.

The Ccr4-Not Complex: Architecture and Structural Insights
The Ccr4-Not complex is an essential multi-subunit protein complex that plays a fundamental role in eukaryotic mRNA metabolism and has a multitude of different roles that impact eukaryotic gene expression . It has a conserved core of three Not proteins, the Ccr4 protein, and two Ccr4 associated factors, Caf1 and Caf40.

Multifunctional roles of the mammalian CCR4-NOT complex in physiological phenomena
The CCR4-NOT complex serves as one of the major deadenylases of eukaryotes. Although it was originally identified and characterized in yeast, recent studies have revealed that the CCR4-NOT complex also exerts important functions in mammals, including ...

SPT5 affects the rate of mRNA degradation and physically interacts with CCR4 but does not control mRNA deadenylation [PDF]
The CCR4-NOT complex has been shown to have multiple roles in mRNA metabolism, including that of transcriptional elongation, mRNA transport, and nuclear exosome function, but the primary function of CCR4 and CAF1 is in the deadenylation and degradation ...
