François Gros: from antibiotics to messenger RNA
François Gros was a prominent French Molecular Biologist who made a major contribution to the discovery of messenger RNA in 1961. He pursued outstanding research on bacterial mRNA and its translation into proteins followed by pioneering work on muscle ...

RNA-Seq: revelation of the messengers [PDF]
Next-generation RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) is rapidly outcompeting microarrays as the technology of choice for whole-transcriptome studies. However, the bioinformatics skills required for RNA-Seq data analysis often pose a significant hurdle for many biologists.

Pseudo-messenger RNA: phantoms of the transcriptome. [PDF]
The mammalian transcriptome harbours shadowy entities that resist classification and analysis. In analogy with pseudogenes, we define pseudo-messenger RNA to be RNA molecules that resemble protein-coding mRNA, but cannot encode full-length proteins owing

Rocaglates convert DEAD-box protein eIF4A into a sequence-selective translational repressor. [PDF]
Rocaglamide A (RocA) typifies a class of protein synthesis inhibitors that selectively kill aneuploid tumour cells and repress translation of specific messenger RNAs.

Amplifiable messenger RNA. [PDF]
RNA molecules were prepared that consisted of an mRNA encoding chloramphenicol acetyltransferase embedded within the sequence of midivariant RNA, which is a template for the RNA-directed RNA polymerase Q beta replicase. These recombinant RNAs were shown to be bifunctional: they are amplified exponentially by incubation with Q beta replicase, and the ...

Hepatitis C virus 3'UTR regulates viral translation through direct interactions with the host translation machinery. [PDF]
The 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) messenger RNA stimulates viral translation by an undetermined mechanism. We identified a high affinity interaction, conserved among different HCV genotypes, between the HCV 3'UTR and the host ...

RNA interference as a novel treatment strategy for chronic hepatitis B infection [PDF]
Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) is a major cause of liver-related morbidity and mortality. Functional cure of CHB, defined as sustainable hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) seroclearance, is associated with improved clinical outcomes. However, functional cure

The roles of the subunits in the function of the calcium channel [PDF]
Dihydropyridine-sensitive voltage-dependent L-type calcium channels are critical to excitation-secretion and excitation-contraction coupling. The channel molecule is a complex of the main, pore-forming subunit alpha 1 and four additional subunits: alpha ...

Cotranslational microRNA mediated messenger RNA destabilization
MicroRNAs are small (22 nucleotide) regulatory molecules that play important roles in a wide variety of biological processes. These RNAs, which bind to targeted mRNAs via limited base pairing interactions, act to reduce protein production from those ...
