Cooperation of regulatory RNA and the RNA degradosome in transcript surveillance. [PDF]
The ompD transcript, encoding an outer membrane porin in Salmonella, harbors a controlling element in its coding region that base-pairs imperfectly with a ‘seed’ region of the small regulatory RNA (sRNA) MicC.

The RNase J-Based RNA Degradosome Is Compartmentalized in the Gastric Pathogen
Posttranscriptional regulation is a major level of gene expression control in any cell. In bacteria, multiprotein machines called RNA degradosomes are central for RNA processing and degradation, and some were reported to be compartmentalized inside these

Beyond a platform protein for the degradosome assembly: The Apoptosis-Inducing Factor as an efficient nuclease involved in chromatinolysis. [PDF]
The Apoptosis-Inducing Factor (AIF) is a moonlighting flavoenzyme involved in the assembly of mitochondrial respiratory complexes in healthy cells, but also able to trigger DNA cleavage and parthanatos.

Membrane recognition and dynamics of the RNA degradosome.
RNase E, which is the central component of the multienzyme RNA degradosome, serves as a scaffold for interaction with other enzymes involved in mRNA degradation including the DEAD-box RNA helicase RhlB.

When translation elongation is impaired, the mRNA is uniformly destabilized by the RNA degradosome, while the concentration of mRNA is altered along the molecule. [PDF]
mRNA sits at the crossroads of transcription, translation and mRNA degradation. Many questions remain about the coupling of these three processes in Escherichia coli and, in particular, how translation may have an effect on mRNA degradation and ...

Dimeric assembly of human Suv3 helicase promotes its
Human Suv3 is a unique homodimeric helicase that constitutes the major component of the mitochondrial degradosome to work cooperatively with exoribonuclease PNPase for efficient RNA decay.

Attachment of the RNA degradosome to the bacterial inner cytoplasmic membrane prevents wasteful degradation of rRNA in ribosome assembly intermediates. [PDF]
RNA processing and degradation shape the transcriptome by generating stable molecules that are necessary for translation (rRNA and tRNA) and by facilitating the turnover of mRNA, which is necessary for the posttranscriptional control of gene expression ...

Structural analysis of mtEXO mitochondrial RNA degradosome reveals tight coupling of nuclease and helicase components [PDF]
The mitochondrial RNA degradosome (mtEXO) plays an essential role in the regulation of mitochondrial gene expression and is composed of the 3′-to-5′ exoribonuclease Dss1 and the helicase Suv3.

Crystal structure of Caulobacter crescentus polynucleotide phosphorylase reveals a mechanism of RNA substrate channelling and RNA degradosome assembly [PDF]
Polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase) is an exoribonuclease that cleaves single-stranded RNA substrates with 3′–5′ directionality and processive behaviour.

The DEAD-box RNA helicase RhlB is required for efficient RNA processing at low temperature in Caulobacter [PDF]
The RNA helicases from the DEAD-box family participate in several biochemical processes, with special relevance in the assembly of ribosome ribonucleoparticles and in RNA turnover as part of the multi-enzymatic RNA degradosome complex.
