What's new? Bladder cancer exhibits a highly heterogeneous molecular landscape and treatment response. The dysregulation of RNA modifications such as m6A has been involved in cancer initiation and progression. This study comprehensively analyzed the expression of the main catalytic component of the m6A methylation machinery in bladder tumors across one

DEAD-box helicase eIF4A2 inhibits CNOT7 deadenylation activity [PDF]
Abstract The CCR4–NOT complex plays an important role in the translational repression and deadenylation of mRNAs. However, little is known about the specific roles of interacting factors. We demonstrate that the DEAD-box helicases eIF4A2 and DDX6 interact directly with the MA3 and MIF domains of CNOT1 and compete for binding. Furthermore,

Progress in RNA‐Targeted Therapeutics for Human Diseases
RNA‐targeted therapies are revolutionizing molecular medicine by transitioning from a “protein‐centric” focus to an “RNA‐regulatory network” approach. Leveraging RNA's diverse roles in gene regulation, signaling, and epigenetic modifications, advanced platforms such as ASOs, siRNA, miRNA, mRNA, aptamers, shRNA, and CRISPR/Cas systems are enabling ...

Evidence Providing New Insights into TOB-Promoted Deadenylation and Supporting a Link between TOB's Deadenylation-Enhancing and Antiproliferative Activities [PDF]
The mammalian TOB1 and TOB2 proteins have emerged as key players in repressing cell proliferation. Accumulating evidence indicates that TOBs regulate mRNA deadenylation. A recruitment model was proposed in which TOBs promote deadenylation by recruiting CAF1-CCR4 deadenylase complex to the 3' end of mRNAs by simultaneously binding CAF1 and PABP. However,

The CAF1-NOT complex of trypanosomes
In African trypanosomes, there is no control of transcription initiation by RNA polymerase II at the level of individual protein-coding genes. Transcription is polycistronic, and individual mRNAs are excised by trans splicing and polyadenylation.

The ApaH-like phosphatase TbALPH1 is the major mRNA decapping enzyme of trypanosomes. [PDF]
5'-3' decay is the major mRNA decay pathway in many eukaryotes, including trypanosomes. After deadenylation, mRNAs are decapped by the nudix hydrolase DCP2 of the decapping complex and finally degraded by the 5'-3' exoribonuclease. Uniquely, trypanosomes

Effect of Larval Nutrition on Maternal mRNA Contribution to the Drosophila Egg. [PDF]
Embryonic development begins under the control of maternal gene products, mRNAs and proteins that the mother deposits into the egg; the zygotic genome is activated some time later. Maternal control of early development is conserved across metazoans. Gene

State‐of‐the‐Art Strategies for Circular RNA in Cancers: Opportunity and Challenge
Overview of circular RNA in tumors. ABSTRACT Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are characterized by their covalently closed structure, remarkable stability, and precise spatiotemporal regulation, evolving from once‐overlooked transcriptional byproducts to pivotal molecular regulators.

Deciphering mRNA Translation During Sperm Capacitation: A New Frontier in Fertility Research
ABSTRACT Male infertility accounts for approximately 50% of infertility cases, with nearly 30% remaining unexplained after standard evaluations. This highlights the need for a better understanding of sperm function to advance diagnostic and therapeutic strategies. Sperm were long considered translationally quiescent; however, emerging evidence suggests
