Intramolecular Phenotypic Capacitance in a Modular RNA Molecule [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Phenotypic capacitance refers to the ability of a genome to accumulate mutations that are conditionally hidden and only reveal phenotype-altering effects after certain environmental or genetic changes.

CRPPA exon 6–9 deletion as a founder mutation in Chinese patients with dystroglycanopathy

open access: yesPediatric Investigation, EarlyView.
Analysis of sixteen Chinese dystroglycanopathy patients reveals a founder mutation (CRPPA exon 6–9 deletion) in 25% of cases and expands the phenotypic spectrum from severe muscle‐eye‐brain disease to limb‐girdle muscular dystrophy. ABSTRACT Importance Dystroglycanopathies (DGPs) are a group of muscular dystrophies with abnormal glycosylation of ...

Proteome‐Wide Analysis of Human Deletions

open access: yesProteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Protein deletions are frequent among both natural and pathogenic variations. Many of them are misclassified in variation databases and the literature. Nonsense‐mediated decay prevents the expression of many nucleotide deletions. Many variants classified as protein deletions are not expressed at all.

Functionality of In vitro Reconstituted Group II Intron RmInt1-Derived Ribonucleoprotein Particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The functional unit of mobile group II introns is a ribonucleoprotein particle (RNP) consisting of the intron-encoded protein (IEP) and the excised intron RNA. The IEP has reverse transcriptase activity but also promotes RNA splicing, and the RNA-protein

Integration of epigenetics into ecotoxicology: insights and fundamental research needs

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Epigenetics refers to heritable changes in genome function that occur without direct alterations to the DNA sequence. A multitude of environmental contaminants can influence the epigenetic marks of a genome. Changes of epigenetic marks including DNA methylation, histone modifications, and non‐coding RNAs can induce alterations at the gene ...

General and Specific Promotion of Flagellar Assembly by a Flagellar Nucleoside Diphosphate Kinase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Nucleoside diphosphate kinases (NDKs) play a central role in diverse cellular processes using the canonical NDK activity or alternative mechanisms that remain poorly defined.

Regulation of R‐Loop Dynamics by Proteins and Long Noncoding RNAs: An Emerging Paradigm for Cancer Treatment

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
R‐loops are three‐stranded nucleic acid structures whose dysregulation leads to genomic instability and cancer progression. This review summarizes the protein and lncRNA machineries that regulate R‐loop dynamics and discusses the therapeutic potential of targeting these pathways in cancer.

EZH2 Single Nucleotide Variants (SNVs): Diagnostic and Prognostic Role in 10 Solid Tumor Types [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) gene encodes a histone methyltransferase that is a catalytic subunit of the Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) group of proteins that act to repress gene expression.

Plant organelle C‐to‐U RNA editing factors can operate successfully in yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) as an easily amenable eukaryotic system for their functional analysis

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Plant‐type pentatricopeptide repeat proteins capable of C‐to‐U RNA editing perform faithfully when expressed in a new heterologous system, the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. They were tested with constitutive and inducible expression and with a set of different solubility tags. PPR56, PPR65, and PPR78 from P.
