The plant Nudix hydrolase family. [PDF]
Nudix hydrolases are a family of proteins defined by a conserved amino-acid sequence GX(5)-EX(7)REUXEEXGU, where U is a hydrophobic residue. These enzymes are widely distributed among all classes of organisms and catalyze, with varying degrees of ...

The Role of N6‐Methyladenosine Modification in Health and Disease
N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent internal RNA modification in eukaryotes, acting as a pivotal epitranscriptomic regulator of RNA metabolism. This modification plays a dual role: it maintains physiological homeostasis under normal conditions but drives disease progression when dysregulated.

Regulation of PHOX2B gene expression by the long non‐coding natural antisense RNA PHOX2B‐AS1
PHOX2B is a transcription factor essential for autonomic nervous system development. We identify and characterize PHOX2B‐AS1, a human long non‐coding antisense transcript at the PHOX2B locus, along with its murine counterpart. Our findings reveal bidirectional transcription and reciprocal regulation: PHOX2B activates PHOX2B‐AS1, whereas PHOX2B‐AS1 ...

Characterization of Arabidopsis decapping proteins AtDCP1 and AtDCP2, which are essential for post-embryonic development [PDF]
Although decapping is an important process in eukaryotic mRNA turnover, little is known about this process in plants. Here, we identified Arabidopsis thaliana decapping proteins AtDCP1 and AtDCP2 and showed that (I) AtDCP2 is an active decapping enzyme, (

ADP-ribosylation is well-known as protein posttranslational modification and was recently also identified as RNA posttranscriptional modification. When macrodomain proteins were identified as protein ADP-ribosylhydrolases, several ADP-ribosylation ...

Molecular mechanisms of messenger RNA decapping
The work presented in this doctoral thesis describes biochemical and structural investigations of the molecular mechanisms of messenger RNA decapping—a critical step in one of the major cytoplasmic messenger RNA decay pathways. Decapping, mediated by the

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.

Decapping activators in Saccharomyces cerevisiae act by multiple mechanisms
Eukaryotic mRNA degradation often occurs in a process whereby translation initiation is inhibited and the mRNA is targeted for decapping. In yeast cells, Pat1, Scd6, Edc3, and Dhh1 all function to promote decapping by an unknown mechanism(s).
