RNA interference as a novel treatment strategy for chronic hepatitis B infection [PDF]
Clinical and Molecular Hepatology, 2022 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

Modelling ribosome kinetics and translational control on dynamic mRNA.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2023 The control of protein synthesis and the overall levels of various proteins in the cell is critical for achieving homoeostasis. Regulation of protein levels can occur at the transcriptional level, where the total number of messenger RNAs in the overall ...

Bifunctional transfer-messenger RNA [PDF]
Biochimie, 2011 Transfer-messenger RNA (tmRNA) is a bifunctional RNA that has properties of a tRNA and an mRNA. tmRNA uses these two functions to release ribosomes stalled during translation and target the nascent polypeptides for degradation. This concerted reaction, known as trans-translation, contributes to translational quality control and regulation of gene ...

A thermostable messenger RNA based vaccine against rabies. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2017 Although effective rabies virus vaccines have been existing for decades, each year, rabies virus infections still cause around 50.000 fatalities worldwide. Most of these cases occur in developing countries, where these vaccines are not available.

Processivity and coupling in messenger RNA transcription.
PLoS ONE, 2010 BackgroundThe complexity of messenger RNA processing is now being uncovered by experimental techniques that are capable of detecting individual copies of mRNA in cells, and by quantitative real-time observations that reveal the kinetics.

Guardian of Genetic Messenger-RNA-Binding Proteins
Biomolecules, 2016 RNA in cells is always associated with RNA-binding proteins that regulate all aspects of RNA metabolism including RNA splicing, export from the nucleus, RNA localization, mRNA turn-over as well as translation. Given their diverse functions, cells express

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.
