Control of mRNA metabolism by deadenylation

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2013
The presence of a polyadenosine tail is an important determinant of mRNA translation and stability. The regulated removal of the tail, i.e. deadenylation, leads to either translational quiescence or mRNA degradation. Deadenylation, therefore, is a critical node in gene expression and is especially important in certain biological contexts such as in the

Rational engineering of microRNA-regulated viruses for cancer gene therapy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNA molecules that have important regulatory roles in a wide range of biological processes. miRNAs are often expressed in a tissue- and/or differentiation state-specific patterns, and it is estimated that miRNAs can

Identification of ebs1, lsm6 and nup159 as suppressors of spt10 effects at ADH2 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae suggests post-transcriptional defects affect mRNA synthesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Suppression of the effects of an spt10 mutation on ADH2 expression is a phenotype shared by a small number of genes whose protein products are either components of the CCR4-NOT complex required for mRNA deadenylation and degradation (CCR4, CAF1, NOT4) or

RNA Analysis Uncovers Pathogenic PARN Variant in Dyskeratosis Congenita

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 109, Issue 2, Page 346-351, February 2026.
Using WGS and RNA analysis, we identified a branch point‐disrupting variant in the PARN gene and elucidated its pathogenic molecular mechanism in a child with atypical dyskeratosis congenita presentation. ABSTRACT Dyskeratosis congenita (DC) is a rare genetic disorder caused by impaired telomere maintenance, leading to diverse clinical manifestations ...

CUP promotes deadenylation and inhibits decapping of mRNA targets [PDF]

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2011
CUP is an eIF4E-binding protein (4E-BP) that represses the expression of specific maternal mRNAs prior to their posterior localization. Here, we show that CUP employs multiple mechanisms to repress the expression of target mRNAs. In addition to inducing translational repression, CUP maintains mRNA targets in a repressed state by promoting their ...

Novel roles of the multifunctional CCR4-NOT complex in post-transcriptional regulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2014
The CCR4-NOT complex is highly conserved gene silencer, and more general functions of the complex have been elucidated at post-transcriptional levels. Specific regulatory proteins, including miRNA-induced silencing complex and its associate protein, bind

The 5′ Cap Epitranscriptome and Beyond: Natural and Engineered 5′ Cap Modifications for Optimizing mRNA Therapeutics and Functional Studies

open access: yesChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 2, January 2026.
5′ Cap modifications can be introduced via enzymes or chemical synthesis. Natural and non‐natural 5′ cap structures affect mRNA properties, including translation (T), stability (S), and/or immunogenicity (I). Eukaryotic mRNAs made by in vitro transcription have emerged as medical modalities for vaccination and protein replacement therapy. The 5′ cap is

RNA-binding proteins distinguish between similar sequence motifs to promote targeted deadenylation by Ccr4-Not

open access: yeseLife, 2019
The Ccr4-Not complex removes mRNA poly(A) tails to regulate eukaryotic mRNA stability and translation. RNA-binding proteins contribute to specificity by interacting with both Ccr4-Not and target mRNAs, but this is not fully understood.

An Analysis of Putative Roles for the CCR4-NOT Deadenylase-Complex Subunit Regena (NOT2) in microRNA-Mediated Gene Silencing in \u3cem\u3eDrosophila Melanogaster\u3c/em\u3e [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
microRNAs (miRNAs) are one class of small non-coding ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules essential to development and homeostasis in plants and animals. miRNAs silence gene expression through complementary base pairing with target gene messenger RNAs and ...

Coordinated actions of microRNAs with other epigenetic factors regulate skeletal muscle development and adaptation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Epigenetics plays a pivotal role in regulating gene expression in development, in response to cellular stress or in disease states, in virtually all cell types.
