Eukaryotic mRNA Decapping Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
The 5′-terminal cap is a fundamental determinant of eukaryotic gene expression which facilitates cap-dependent translation and protects mRNAs from exonucleolytic degradation.

Conserved and divergent features of human mRNA decapping revealed by biochemical reconstitution [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Decapping is a critical step in mRNA decay, but the mechanisms regulating human decapping enzyme DCP2 remain poorly understood. Here, we reconstitute the human decapping network using full-length recombinant proteins and compare it to the yeast system ...

Pby1 is a direct partner of the Dcp2 decapping enzyme [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2020
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.

Control of mRNA decapping by autoinhibition [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2018
5’ mediated cytoplasmic RNA decay is a conserved cellular process in eukaryotes. While the functions of the structured core domains in this pathway are understood, the role of abundant intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) is lacking.

Targeted mRNA degradation by deadenylation-independent decapping [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2004
International audienceModulating the rate of mRNA degradation is a fast and efficient way to control gene expression. In a yeast strain deleted of EDC3, a component of the decapping machinery conserved in eukaryotes, the transcript coding the ribosomal ...

Biochemical and functional characterization of orf virus decapping protein OV71 [PDF]

open access: yesVirology Journal
Background Nudix enzymes constitute a family of hydrolases that share a conserved Nudix motif, which catalyzes the hydrolysis of nucleoside diphosphates linked to another moiety X.

Mille viae in eukaryotic mRNA decapping

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Structural Biology, 2017
Cellular mRNA levels are regulated via rates of transcription and decay. Since the removal of the mRNA 5'-cap by the decapping enzyme DCP2 is generally an irreversible step towards decay, it requires regulation.

mRNA decapping proteins regulate EIN2-dependent ethylene signaling in arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science
Ethylene signaling regulates plant growth and stress adaptation through a well-defined pathway, yet its mechanistic complexity remains underexplored. Here, we identify two mRNA decapping proteins, DCP1 and DCP2, as novel regulators of canonical ethylene ...

Decapping activators Edc3 and Scd6 act redundantly with Dhh1 in post-transcriptional repression of starvation-induced pathways [PDF]

open access: yeseLife
Degradation of many yeast mRNAs involves decapping by the Dcp1:Dcp2 complex. Previous studies on decapping activators Edc3 and Scd6 suggested their limited roles in mRNA decay.

HPat a decapping activator interacting with the miRNA effector complex.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Animal miRNAs commonly mediate mRNA degradation and/or translational repression by binding to their target mRNAs. Key factors for miRNA-mediated mRNA degradation are the components of the miRNA effector complex (AGO1 and GW182) and the general mRNA ...
