Pby1 is a direct partner of the Dcp2 decapping enzyme [PDF]
International audienceMost eukaryotic mRNAs harbor a characteristic 5 m 7 GpppN cap that promotes pre-mRNA splicing, mRNA nucleocytoplasmic transport and translation while also protecting mRNAs from exonucleolytic attacks.

Structural basis of dcp2 recognition and activation by dcp1 [PDF]
A critical step in mRNA degradation is the removal of the 5' cap structure, which is catalyzed by the Dcp1-Dcp2 complex. The crystal structure of an S.

Intrinsically disordered regions of tristetraprolin and DCP2 directly interact to mediate decay of ARE-mRNA [PDF]
The RNA-binding protein tristetraprolin (TTP) is a potent activator of mRNA decay, specifically for transcripts bearing AU-rich elements (AREs) in their 3′-untranslated regions.

Role of DCP1-DCP2 complex regulated by viral and host microRNAs in DNA virus infection [PDF]
The DCP1-DCP2 complex can regulate the animal antiviral immunity by the decapping of retrovirus RNAs and the suppression of RNAi pathway. However, the influence of DCP1-DCP2 complex on DNA virus infection and the regulation of DCP1-DCP2 complex by ...

The structural basis of Edc3- and Scd6-mediated activation of the Dcp1:Dcp2 mRNA decapping complex [PDF]
The Dcp1:Dcp2 decapping complex catalyses the removal of the mRNA 5' cap structure. Activator proteins, including Edc3 (enhancer of decapping 3), modulate its activity.

A split active site couples cap recognition by Dcp2 to activation [PDF]
Decapping by Dcp2 is an essential step in 5'-to-3' mRNA decay. In yeast, decapping requires an open-to-closed transition in Dcp2, though the link between closure and catalysis remains elusive.

Disruption of Dcp1 leads to a Dcp2‐dependent aberrant ribosome profiles in Aspergillus nidulans [PDF]
There are multiple RNA degradation mechanisms in eukaryotes, key among these is mRNA decapping, which requires the Dcp1‐Dcp2 complex. Decapping is involved in various processes including nonsense‐mediated decay (NMD), a process by which aberrant ...

Dcp1 links coactivators of mRNA decapping to Dcp2 by proline recognition [PDF]
Cap hydrolysis is a critical step in several eukaryotic mRNA decay pathways and is carried out by the evolutionarily conserved decapping complex containing Dcp2 at the catalytic core. In yeast, Dcp1 is an essential activator of decapping and coactivators

Active Site Conformational Dynamics Are Coupled to Catalysis in the mRNA Decapping Enzyme Dcp2 [PDF]
SummaryRemoval of the 5′ cap structure by Dcp2 is a major step in several 5′–3′ mRNA decay pathways. The activity of Dcp2 is enhanced by Dcp1 and bound coactivators, yet the details of how these interactions are linked to chemistry are poorly understood.

Degradation of most yeast mRNAs involves decapping by Dcp1/Dcp2. DEAD-box protein Dhh1 has been implicated as an activator of decapping, in coupling codon non-optimality to enhanced degradation, and as a translational repressor, but its functions in ...
