The Bowen–Conradi syndrome protein Nep1 (Emg1) has a dual role in eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis, as an essential assembly factor and in the methylation of Psi1191 in yeast 18S rRNA [PDF]
The Nep1 (Emg1) SPOUT-class methyltransferase is an essential ribosome assembly factor and the human Bowen–Conradi syndrome (BCS) is caused by a specific Nep1D86G mutation. We recently showed in vitro that Methanocaldococcus jannaschii Nep1 is a sequence-

Unstable Inheritance of 45S rRNA Genes in Arabidopsis thaliana
The considerable genome size variation in Arabidopsis thaliana has been shown largely to be due to copy number variation (CNV) in 45S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes.

Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

EXOSC10, an essential nuclear RNA exosome‐associated 3′‐5′ exoribonuclease, is inhibited by the anticancer drug 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU), and EXOSC10 depletion increases 5‐FU sensitivity. The colon‐cancer variant EXOSC10S402T, located in a proteolysis motif, is stable and nuclear but nonfunctional in vivo.

The mitochondrial genome of the endophyte Edenia gomezpompae CRI Eg3 isolated from sweet potato
Edenia gomezpompae CRI Eg3 was isolated from the leaves of sweet potato. Its complete mitogenome contains 37,226 bp, with a G + C content of 26.1%. A total of 51 genes were annotated, including 16 protein-coding genes, 33 tRNA genes, and 2 rRNA (s-rRNA ...

Location of the 5.8S rRNA gene of Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Direct DNA sequence analysis of Saccharomyces cerevisiae ribosomal DNA cloned in an Escherichia coli plasmid revealed part of the structural gene for 5.8S rRNA at one end of a 700-base-pair EcoRI fragment. Taken with the previously established EcoRI restriction map of the ribosomal repeat unit, this sequence establishes that the yeast 5.8S RNA segment ...

Oncogenic DMTF1β promotes cancer cell motility by regulating autophagy through ULK1 stabilization
In the current study, we demonstrate that the oncogene DMTF1β regulates ULK1 stability by reducing its proteasomal degradation in cancer cells. This stabilization enables ULK1 to induce autophagy, which in turn facilitates cancer cell migration. Consequently, reduced DMTF1β levels lead to decreased autophagy and impaired cancer cell migration.
