Characterization of a bafinivirus exoribonuclease activity
White bream virus (WBV), a poorly characterized plus-strand RNA virus infecting freshwater fish of the Cyprinidae family, is the prototype species of the genus Bafinivirus in the subfamily Torovirinae (family Coronaviridae, order Nidovirales). In common with other nidoviruses featuring >20 kilobase genomes, bafiniviruses have been predicted to encode ...

Mutational analysis of exoribonuclease I from Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Exoribonuclease I from yeast is a 175 kDa protein that is responsible for the majority of cytoplasmic mRNA degradation. Alignment of the Xrn1p sequence with homologs from yeast as well as from higher eukaryotes suggests that the protein is composed of several domains: two acidic N-terminal domains which likely contain the exonuclease, a basic middle ...

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

iCLIP analysis of RNA substrates of the archaeal exosome
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.

Shared properties and singularities of exoribonuclease-resistant RNAs in viruses
What viral RNA genomes lack in size, they make up for in intricacy. Elaborate RNA structures embedded in viral genomes can hijack essential cellular mechanisms aiding virus propagation.

Collaborator of alternative reading frame protein (CARF) regulates early processing of pre-ribosomal RNA by retaining XRN2 (5′-3′ exoribonuclease) in the nucleoplasm [PDF]
Collaborator of alternative reading frame protein (CARF) associates directly with ARF, p53, and/or human double minute 2 protein (HDM2), a ubiquitin-protein ligase, without cofactors and regulates cell proliferation by forming a negative feedback loop ...

Target RNAs strike back on MicroRNAs [PDF]
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.
