Downregulation of m6A writer complex member METTL14 in bladder urothelial carcinoma suppresses tumor aggressiveness

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2022
N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) and its regulatory proteins have been associated with tumorigenesis in several cancer types. However, knowledge on the mechanistic network related to m6A in bladder cancer (BlCa) is rather limited, requiring further investigation

Localization of METTL16 at the Nuclear Periphery and the Nucleolus Is Cell Cycle-Specific and METTL16 Interacts with Several Nucleolar Proteins

open access: yesLife, 2021
METTL16 methyltransferase is responsible for the methylation of N6-adenosine (m6A) in several RNAs. In mouse cells, we showed that the nuclear distribution of METTL16 is cell cycle-specific. In the G1/S phases, METTL16 accumulates to the nucleolus, while

Probing RNA recognition by human ADAR2 using a high-throughput mutagenesis method. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Adenosine deamination is one of the most prevalent post-transcriptional modifications in mRNA. In humans, ADAR1 and ADAR2 catalyze this modification and their malfunction correlates with disease. Recently our laboratory reported crystal structures of the

Epitranscriptomic Regulation in Synaptic Plasticity, Aging and Neurodegeneration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The regulation of synaptic transmission and plasticity is essential for correct brain function, especially for learning and memory, while the weakening of synaptic transmission and loss of plasticity are hallmarks of the decline of cognitive function ...

Cracking the epitranscriptome [PDF]

open access: yesRNA, 2016
Over 100 distinct chemical modifications can be catalyzed on RNA post-synthesis, potentially serving as a post-transcriptional regulatory layer of gene expression. This review focuses on recent advances, knowledge gaps, and challenges pertaining to N6-methyladenosine (m6A), an abundant modification of mRNA for which substantial progress has been made ...

Epitranscriptomics of SARS-CoV-2 Infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2022
Recent studies on the epitranscriptomic code of SARS-CoV-2 infection have discovered various RNA modifications, such as N6-methyladenosine (m6A), pseudouridine (Ψ), and 2′-O-methylation (Nm).

The mammalian mitochondrial epitranscriptome

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Gene Regulatory Mechanisms, 2019
Correct expression of the mitochondrially-encoded genes is critical for the production of the components of the oxidative phosphorylation machinery. Post-transcriptional modifications of mitochondrial transcripts have been emerging as an important regulatory feature of mitochondrial gene expression.

The Epitranscriptome and Innate Immunity [PDF]

open access: yesPLOS Genetics, 2015
Our knowledge of the variety and abundances of RNA base modifications is rapidly increasing. Modified bases have critical roles in tRNAs, rRNAs, translation, splicing, RNA interference, and other RNA processes, and are now increasingly detected in all types of transcripts.

Spaceflight Activates Autophagy Programs and the Proteasome in Mouse Liver [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Increased oxidative stress is an unavoidable consequence of exposure to the space environment. Our previous studies showed that mice exposed to space for 13.5 days had decreased glutathione levels, suggesting impairments in oxidative defense.

Recent Acquisition of Functional m6A RNA Demethylase Domain in Orchid Ty3/Gypsy Elements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
[EN] Long terminal repeats (LTR) retrotransposons are transposable elements (TEs) representing major components of most plant genomes. The fixation of additional conserved protein domains in their genomes is considered a rare event in the course of their
