Intron retention enhances gene regulatory complexity in vertebrates
Genome Biology, 2017 BackgroundWhile intron retention (IR) is now widely accepted as an important mechanism of mammalian gene expression control, it remains the least studied form of alternative splicing.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) occupy an abundant fraction of the eukaryotic transcriptome and an emerging area in cancer research. Regulation by lncRNAs is based on their subcellular localization in HNSCC. This cartoon shows the various functions of lncRNAs in HNSCC discussed in this review.

The role of circular RNAs in regulating cytokine signaling in cancer
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Cytokines present in the tumor microenvironment fuel cancer development. Aberrant expression of circRNAs contributes to cancer progression. Cytokines are involved in regulating circRNA biogenesis. Furthermore, aberrantly expressed circRNAs regulate the expression of ligands, receptors, and downstream effectors involved in cytokine signaling to promote ...

Identification of a dinucleotide signature that discriminates coding from non-coding long RNAs
Frontiers in Genetics, 2014 To date, the main criterion by which long ncRNAs (lncRNAs) are discriminated from mRNAs is based on the capacity of the transcripts to encode a protein. However, it becomes important to identify non-ORF-based sequence characteristics that can be used to ...

Structure of a Group II Intron Complexed with its Reverse Transcriptase
Nature Structural & Molecular Biology, 2016 Bacterial group II introns are large catalytic RNAs related to nuclear spliceosomal introns and eukaryotic retrotransposons. They self-splice to yield mature RNA, and integrate into DNA as retroelements.

Liver‐specific lncRNAs associated with liver cancers
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are regulatory molecules with various functions. They are more tissue‐specific than proteins and can be used as potential biomarkers, particularly in cancer diagnostics and prognosis. In this review, we have systematically compiled all lncRNAs with exclusive expression in the human liver, verified their liver specificity ...

The rise and falls of introns [PDF]
Heredity, 2006 There has been a lively debate over the evolution of eukaryote introns: at what point in the tree of life did they appear and from where, and what has been their subsequent pattern of loss and gain? A diverse range of recent research papers is relevant to this debate, and it is timely to bring them together.

A striatal-enriched intronic GPCR modulates huntingtin levels and toxicity
eLife, 2015 Huntington's disease (HD) represents an important model for neurodegenerative disorders and proteinopathies. It is mainly caused by cytotoxicity of the mutant huntingtin protein (Htt) with an expanded polyQ stretch.

Mitochondrial genomes and phylogenomic analysis of Ulva lactuca Linnaeus (Ulvophyceae, Chlorophyta)
Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020 Two mitogenomes of Ulva lactuca Linnaeus, one from Florida, USA and another nearly complete mtDNA from Chile, had previously been sequenced. Here, the complete mitogenome of U. lactuca from Shantou, China was sequenced and compared with them.

The cochaperone BAG3 promotes the stabilization of p53 under heat stress conditions
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Under heat stress, BAG3 translocates to the nucleus and forms a complex with Hsp70 and p53, thereby promoting p53 stabilization and enhancing its transcriptional activity. These findings suggest that BAG3 functions as a cochaperone that supports p53‐mediated stress responses in cooperation with Hsp70.
