Messenger RNA degradation is initiated at the 5′ end and follows sequence- and condition-dependent modes in chloroplasts [PDF]

open access: yes
Using reporter gene constructs, consisting of the bacterial uidA (GUS) coding region flanked by the 5′ and 3′ regions of the Chlamydomonas rbcL and psaB genes, respectively, we studied the degradation of mRNAs in the chloroplast of Chlamydomonas ...

RNA-guided complex from a bacterial immune system enhances target recognition through seed sequence interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Prokaryotes have evolved multiple versions of an RNA-guided adaptive immune system that targets foreign nucleic acids. In each case, transcripts derived from clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPRs) are thought to selectively ...

Controlling mRNA stability and translation with the CRISPR endoribonuclease Csy4 [PDF]

open access: yesRNA, 2015
The bacterial CRISPR endoribonuclease Csy4 has recently been described as a potential RNA processing tool. Csy4 recognizes substrate RNA through a specific 28-nt hairpin sequence and cleaves at the 3′ end of the stem. To further explore applicability in mammalian cells, we introduced this hairpin at various locations in mRNAs derived from reporter ...

Identification of Apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease 1 (APE1) as the endoribonuclease that cleaves c-myc mRNA [PDF]

open access: yes
Endonucleolytic cleavage of the coding region determinant (CRD) of c-myc mRNA appears to play a critical role in regulating c-myc mRNA turnover. Using 32P-labeled c-myc CRD RNA as substrate, we have purified and identified two endoribonucleases from rat ...

Human 5’-tailed Mirtrons are Processed by RNaseP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Approximately a thousand microRNAs (miRNAs) are documented from human cells. A third appear to transit non-canonical pathways that typically bypass processing by Drosha, the dedicated nuclear miRNA producing enzyme.

Advancing the Identification of Bioactive Molecules and the Construction of a Synergistic Drug Delivery System in Combating Lung Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 18, May 15, 2025.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), while holistic and historically esteemed, faces challenges in “miracle cures” due to slow onset, long cycles, and difficulty controlling quality. This study obtains the active ingredients, glabridin (GLA) and puerarin (PUE), from Ge‐Gen Decoction (GGD), developing a safe and effective drug delivery system, GLA‐PUE ...

Mechanism of substrate selection by a highly specific CRISPR endoribonuclease [PDF]

open access: yesRNA, 2012
Bacteria and archaea possess adaptive immune systems that rely on small RNAs for defense against invasive genetic elements. CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) genomic loci are transcribed as long precursor RNAs, which must be enzymatically cleaved to generate mature CRISPR-derived RNAs (crRNAs) that serve as guides for ...

The Relevance of Ribonuclease III in Pathogenic Bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Dissertation presented to obtain the Ph.D degree in Biology.Ribonucleases (RNases) are key factors in the control of all biological processes, since they modulate the stability of RNA transcripts, allowing rapid changes in gene expression.

The Long and Short of MicroRNA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are versatile regulators of gene expression in higher eukaryotes. In order to silence many different mRNAs in a precise manner, miRNA stability and efficacy is controlled by highly developed regulatory pathways and fine-tuning ...

Regulation and Function of the Atypical IκBs—Bcl‐3, IκBNS, and IκBζ—in Lymphocytes and Autoimmunity

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, Volume 55, Issue 5, May 2025.
This review article summarizes the currently available information on the functions of atypical IκB proteins including Bcl‐3, IκBNS, and IκBζ, which have been studied mostly in mouse models. We focus on the regulation of these modulators of transcription, describe their role in lymphocyte differentiation, and their involvement in the development of ...
