The coronavirus proofreading exoribonuclease mediates extensive viral recombination.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2021
Recombination is proposed to be critical for coronavirus (CoV) diversity and emergence of SARS-CoV-2 and other zoonotic CoVs. While RNA recombination is required during normal CoV replication, the mechanisms and determinants of CoV recombination are not ...

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 ...

Structural analysis of 3’UTRs in insect flaviviruses reveals novel determinants of sfRNA biogenesis and provides new insights into flavivirus evolution

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Subgenomic flaviviral RNAs (sfRNAs) are produced by pathogenic flaviviruses to counteract the host antiviral response. sfRNAs are products of incomplete degradation of viral RNA by the host exoribonuclease XRN1 which stalls on XRN1-resistant structural ...

Nuclease Activity of the Junín Virus Nucleoprotein C-Terminal Domain

open access: yesViruses, 2023
The mammarenavirus Junín (JUNV) is the causative agent of Argentine hemorrhagic fever, a severe disease of public health concern. The most abundant viral protein is the nucleoprotein (NP), a multifunctional, two-domain protein with the primary role as ...

Target RNAs strike back on MicroRNAs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
MicroRNAs are extensively studied regulatory non-coding small RNAs that silence animal genes throughout most biological processes, typically doing so by binding to partially complementary sequences within target RNAs.

The 5'-3' exoribonuclease Pacman (Xrn1) regulates expression of the heat shock protein Hsp67Bc and the microRNA miR-277-3p in Drosophila wing imaginal discs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pacman/Xrn1 is a highly conserved exoribonuclease known to play a critical role in gene regulatory events such as control of mRNA stability, RNA interference and regulation via miRNAs.

The roles of the exoribonucleases DIS3L2 and XRN1 in disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
RNA degradation is a vital post-transcriptional process which ensures that transcripts are maintained at the correct level within the cell. DIS3L2 and XRN1 are conserved exoribonucleases which are critical for the degradation of cytoplasmic RNAs ...

Processing of RNA Containing 8-Oxo-7,8-Dihydroguanosine (8-oxoG) by the Exoribonuclease Xrn-1

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Understanding how oxidatively damaged RNA is handled intracellularly is of relevance due to the link between oxidized RNA and the progression/development of some diseases as well as aging.

A novel role for the 3′-5′ exoribonuclease Dis3L2 in controlling cell proliferation and tissue growth [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In a complex organism, cell proliferation and apoptosis need to be precisely controlled in order for tissues to develop correctly. Excessive cell proliferation can lead to diseases such as cancer. We have shown that the exoribonuclease Dis3L2 is required

iCLIP analysis of RNA substrates of the archaeal exosome

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2020
Background The archaeal exosome is an exoribonucleolytic multiprotein complex, which degrades single-stranded RNA in 3′ to 5′ direction phosphorolytically. In a reverse reaction, it can add A-rich tails to the 3′-end of RNA.
