Alterations of the transcriptome of Sulfolobus acidocaldarius by exoribonuclease aCPSF2.
Recent studies identified a 5´ to 3´ exoribonuclease termed Sso-RNase J in the crenarchaeon Sulfolobus solfataricus (Sso), which has been reclassified to the aCPSF2 (archaeal cleavage and polyadenylation specificity factor 2) group of β-CASP proteins. In

Cutoff Suppresses RNA Polymerase II Termination to Ensure Expression of piRNA Precursors [PDF]
Small non-coding RNAs called piRNAs serve as guides for an adaptable immune system that represses transposable elements in germ cells of Metazoa. In Drosophila the RDC complex, composed of Rhino, Deadlock and Cutoff (Cuff) bind chromatin of dual-strand ...

Transforming Growth Factor‐β Pathway: Biological Functions and Therapeutic Targets
Natural compounds modulate the TGF‐β pathway, which acts as both a tumor suppressor and promoter during cancer progression. Agents such as ginsenosides, halofuginone, and EGCG influence cell proliferation, apoptosis, and angiogenesis. These bioactive molecules may complement standard therapies, highlighting the need for advanced formulations ...

Phase Separation Regulates Metabolism, Mitochondria, and Diseases
Mitochondrion‐related liquid–liquid phase separation. (1) Phase separation mediates the self‐assembly of mitochondrial nucleoids (mt‐nucleoids). (2) Phase segregation mediates the formation of mitochondrial RNA granules (MRGs). (3) Phase separation mediates the formation of mitochondrial degradosomes.

PTBP1 and Cancer: From RNA Regulation to Therapeutic Potential
ABSTRACT Polypyrimidine tract binding protein 1 (PTBP1) belongs to the heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) family and is a widely studied RNA‐binding protein involved in regulating mRNA splicing, stability, localization, and translation. In addition, PTBP1 can participate in various non‐coding RNA action processes and affect tumorigenesis ...

Reciprocal Effects of Splicing and Polyadenylation on Human Immunodeficiency Virus Type 1 Pre-mRNA Processing [PDF]
Insertion of a functional splicing cassette into a construct containing the HIV-1 poly(A) site followed by the adenovirus L3 poly(A) site results in both specific stimulation of 3′ end processing at the HIV-1 site and an increase in the steady-state ...
