Genome-wide analysis of PAPS1-dependent polyadenylation identifies novel roles for functionally specialized poly(A) polymerases in Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
The poly(A) tail at 3’ ends of eukaryotic mRNAs promotes their nuclear export, stability and translational efficiency, and changes in its length can strongly impact gene expression.

Splicing to keep splicing: A feedback system for cellular homeostasis and state transition
ABSTRACT Background Alternative splicing (AS) plays a crucial role in regulating gene expression and governing proteomic diversity by generating multiple protein isoforms from a single gene. Increasing evidence has highlighted the regulation for pre‐mRNA splicing of the splicing factors (SFs).

Revolution of AAV in Drug Discovery: From Delivery System to Clinical Application
ABSTRACT Adeno‐associated virus (AAV) is a non‐enveloped DNA virus infecting a wide variety of species, tissues, and cell types, which is recognized as a safe and effective method for delivering therapeutic transgenes. AAV vector is the most popular viral gene delivery system in clinical delivery systems with unique and multiple advantages, such as ...

Widespread shortening of 3′UTRs by alternative cleavage and polyadenylation activates oncogenes in cancer cells [PDF]
In cancer cells, genetic alterations can activate proto-oncogenes, thereby contributing to tumorigenesis. However, the protein products of oncogenes are sometimes overexpressed without alteration of the proto-oncogene. Helping to explain this phenomenon,

Phase Separation: A New Dimension to Understanding Tumor Biology and Therapy
Liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS) facilitates the assembly of biomolecular condensates by leveraging weak multivalent interactions. The low‐complexity domains, foldable domains of proteins, and nucleic acids provide multivalent interaction sites among different molecules and contribute to the formation of condensates.
