Human snRNA genes use polyadenylation factors to promote efficient transcription termination. [PDF]
RNA polymerase II transcribes both protein coding and non-coding RNA genes and, in yeast, different mechanisms terminate transcription of the two gene types.

YTHDC1 Is Essential for Postnatal Liver Development and Homeostasis
This study identifies YTHDC1 as a key regulator of postnatal liver development and disease. Hepatocyte‐specific deletion of Ythdc1 impairs hepatocyte maturation, causing liver injury, contributing to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

Identification of adaptive mutations in the influenza A virus non-structural 1 gene that increase cytoplasmic localization and differentially regulate host gene expression. [PDF]
The NS1 protein of influenza A virus (IAV) is a multifunctional virulence factor. We have previously characterized gain-of-function mutations in the NS1 protein arising from the experimental adaptation of the human isolate A/Hong Kong/1/1968(H3N2) (HK ...

A model for cofactor use during HIV-1 reverse transcription and nuclear entry. [PDF]
Lentiviruses have evolved to infect and replicate in a variety of cell types in vivo whilst avoiding the powerful inhibitory activities of restriction factors or cell autonomous innate immune responses.

FUNCTIONAL CHARACTERIZATION OF WD REPEAT PROTEINS, AtCstF50 AND AtFY IN CLEAVAGE AND POLYADENYLATION [PDF]
Polyadenylation is an essential post-transcriptional modification resulting in a mature mRNA in eukaryotes. Three cis-elements the Far Upstream Element (FUE), Near Upstream Element (NUE), and Cleavage Site (CS) - guide the process of cleavage and ...

mRNA maturation in giant viruses: variation on a theme [PDF]
International audienceGiant viruses from the Mimiviridae family replicate entirely in their host cytoplasm where their genes are transcribed by a viral transcription apparatus. mRNA polyadenylation uniquely occurs at hairpin-forming palindromic sequences

Default mode network (DMN) consists, in part, of the frontal (FC), precuneus (PreC), and posterior cingulate cortex (PCC), which plays a critical role in episodic memory and retrieval of autobiographical memories, displays spatiotemporal differences in the onset of amyloid and hypometabolism that reflects tau neurodegeneration and loss of connectivity ...

A Conserved CCCH-type Zinc Finger Protein Regulates mRNA Nuclear Adenylation and Export [PDF]
Coupling of messenger RNA (mRNA) nuclear export with prior processing steps aids in the fidelity and efficiency of mRNA transport to the cytoplasm. In this study, we show that the processes of export and polyadenylation are coupled via the Drosophila ...
