Fifty Shades of Erns: Innate Immune Evasion by the Viral Endonucleases of All Pestivirus Species

open access: yesViruses, 2022
The genus Pestivirus, family Flaviviridae, includes four historically accepted species, i.e., bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV)-1 and -2, classical swine fever virus (CSFV), and border disease virus (BDV).

Colicin E3: A Unique Endoribonuclease [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1973
The question of whether or not a cellular ribonuclease is involved in the cleavage of 16S ribosomal RNA by colicin E3 was investigated. For this purpose ribosomes from strains devoid of some ribonucleases or ribosomes in which ribonucleases had been inactivated by heat or removed by extensive washings were used for the colicin reaction.

An RNA-seq based comparative approach reveals the transcriptome-wide interplay between 3′-to-5′ exoRNases and RNase Y

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Bacterial RNA degradation is typically initiated by endoribonucleases and followed by exoribonucleases. Here the authors report the targetome of endoRNase Y in Streptococcus pyogenes, revealing the interplay between RNase Y and 3′-to-5′ exoribonuclease ...

Alu RNA Structural Features Modulate Immune Cell Activation and A-to-I Editing of Alu RNAs Is Diminished in Human Inflammatory Bowel Disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Alu retrotransposons belong to the class of short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs). Alu RNA is abundant in cells and its repetitive structure forms double-stranded RNAs (dsRNA) that activate dsRNA sensors and trigger innate immune responses with ...

RNA promotes phase separation of glycolysis enzymes into yeast G bodies in hypoxia

open access: yeseLife, 2020
In hypoxic stress conditions, glycolysis enzymes assemble into singular cytoplasmic granules called glycolytic (G) bodies. G body formation in yeast correlates with increased glucose consumption and cell survival.

High Ribonuclease Activity in the Testa of Common Bean Seedlings during Germination: Implication and Characterization of the Ribonuclease T2 PvRNS3

open access: yesAgronomy, 2023
T2 ribonucleases are endoribonucleases that are found in every organism and that carry out important biological functions. In plants, T2 ribonucleases are organized into multi-gene families, and each member is thought to have a specific function. In this

Substrate specificity of human MCPIP1 endoribonuclease [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
AbstractMCPIP1, also known as Regnase-1, is a ribonuclease crucial for regulation of stability of transcripts related to inflammatory processes. Here, we report that MCPIP1 acts as an endonuclease by degrading several stem-loop RNA structures and single-stranded RNAs.

Mutational and Kinetic Analysis of APE1 Endoribonuclease Activity [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology, 2021
Human apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) participates in the DNA repair system. It is believed that the main biological function of APE1 is Mg^(2+)-dependent hydrolysis of AP-sites in DNA. On the base of structural data, kinetic studies, and mutation analysis, the key stages of APE1 interaction with damaged DNA were established.

Sinorhizobium meliloti RNase III: Catalytic Features and Impact on Symbiosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
Members of the ribonuclease (RNase) III family of enzymes are metal-dependent double-strand specific endoribonucleases. They are ubiquitously found and eukaryotic RNase III-like enzymes include Dicer and Drosha, involved in RNA processing and RNA ...

Sequence-specific endoribonucleases

open access: yesPostępy Biochemii, 2016
Ribonucleases are nucleolytic enzymes that commonly occur in living organisms and act by cleaving RNA molecules. These enzymes are involved in basic cellular processes, including the RNA maturation that accompanies the formation of functional RNAs, as well as RNA degradation that enables removal of defective or dangerous molecules or ones that have ...
