SARS‐CoV‐2 and Cancer Biology: Exploring the Mechanistic Links
ABSTRACT Background Five years after the emergence of SARS‐CoV‐2 and the declaration of the COVID‐19 pandemic, the long‐term implications of COVID‐19 for cancer biology remain incompletely understood. Beyond the major disruptions in cancer screening, diagnosis, and treatment observed worldwide, increasing attention has focused on whether SARS‐CoV‐2 ...

Abstract Endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) occurs when the protein‐folding capacity of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is overwhelmed, triggering the unfolded protein response (UPR) to restore homeostasis. However, severe or persistent ERS can shift the UPR toward pro‐inflammatory, apoptotic, and fibrotic signaling, thereby exacerbating tissue injury ...

RNase J is involved in the 5′-end maturation of 16S rRNA and 23S rRNA in Sinorhizobium meliloti [PDF]
Sinorhizobium meliloti harbours genes encoding orthologs of ribonuclease (RNase) E and RNase J, the principle endoribonucleases in Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis, respectively. To analyse the role of RNase J in S. meliloti, RNA from a mutant with

Protein Homeostasis and Mitochondrial Quality Control in Neurodegeneration
Quality control pathways form an integrated proteostasis–mitochondrial quality control axis that maintains mitochondrial and cellular homeostasis. Failure of this coordinated network drives neuronal decline and contributes to neurodegeneration. ABSTRACT Quality control (QC) processes include a network of cellular pathways that prevent the accumulation ...

Structural basis for human mitochondrial tRNA maturation
The human mitochondrial genome is transcribed into two RNAs, containing mRNAs, rRNAs and tRNAs, all dedicated to produce essential proteins of the respiratory chain. The precise excision of tRNAs by the mitochondrial endoribonucleases (mt-RNase), P and Z,

Circular RNAs–Stress Granule Interplay Drives Aging‐Related Proteostasis Loss
Ribonuclease K (RNASEK) maintains ribostasis by degrading circular RNAs (circRNAs) in young cells, enabling functional stress granules (SG) and proper RNA‐protein metabolism for healthy aging and longevity. In aged cells, reduced RNASEK activity causes circRNA accumulation in SG, disrupting ribostasis and proteostasis, leading to cellular dysfunction ...

Broad-specificity endoribonucleases and mRNA degradation in Escherichia coli
Crude extracts from Escherichia coli were screened for any broad-specificity endoribonuclease after the cell proteins were fractionated by size. In a mutant lacking the gene for RNase I (molecular mass, 27,156 Da), the only such activities were also in ...

Targeted RNA knockdown by crRNA guided Csm in zebrafish
RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful experimental tool for RNA knockdown, but not all organisms are amenable. Here, we provide a “proof of principle” demonstration that CRISPR endoribonucleases can be used for programmable mRNA transcript degradation ...

Investigating the 3' RNA Phosphodiesterase and 3'-5' Exoribonuclease Activities of APE1. [PDF]
Messenger RNA degradation is a major control point in determining the abundance of mRNA, and hence in the regulation of gene expression. Until recently, endoribonucleases, enzymes that cleave the phosphodiester bond within a polynucleotide chain, have ...

Removal of RNA/DNA hybrids for the maturation of Okazaki fragments on the lagging strand, or due to misincorporation of ribonucleotides by DNA polymerases, is essential for all types of cells. In prokaryotic cells such as Escherichia coli, DNA polymerase
