mRNA, a Revolution in Biomedicine [PDF]
The perspective of using messenger RNA (mRNA) as a therapeutic molecule first faced some uncertainties due to concerns about its instability and the feasibility of large-scale production. Today, given technological advances and deeper biomolecular knowledge, these issues have started to be addressed and some strategies are being exploited to overcome ...

Recognition of RNA N6-methyladenosine by IGF2BP Proteins Enhances mRNA Stability and Translation
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent modification in eukaryotic messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and is interpreted by its readers, such as YTH domain-containing proteins, to regulate mRNA fate.

mRNA vaccine for cancer immunotherapy
mRNA vaccines have become a promising platform for cancer immunotherapy. During vaccination, naked or vehicle loaded mRNA vaccines efficiently express tumor antigens in antigen-presenting cells (APCs), facilitate APC activation and innate/adaptive immune

Erratum: Corrigendum: mRNA–mRNA duplexes that autoelicit Staufen1-mediated mRNA decay [PDF]
Nat. Struct. Mol. Biol. 20, 1214–1220 (2013); published online 22 September 2013; corrected after print 4 December 2013 In the version of this article initially published, the last sentence of the Figure 5 legend reads: “Downregulation of SOWAHC mRNA inhibits SOWAHC mRNA-CDCP1 mRNA base-pairing and thus the SOWAHC mRNA-mediated SMD of CDCP1 mRNA, an ...

Heterogeneity in mRNA Translation [PDF]
During mRNA translation, the genetic information stored in mRNA is translated into a protein sequence. It is imperative that the genetic information is translated with high precision. Surprisingly, however, recent experimental evidence has demonstrated that translation can be highly heterogeneous, even among different mRNA molecules derived from a ...

SAR and molecular mechanism studies of monoamine oxidase inhibition by selected chalcone analogs
The present study describes the synthesis of a series of 22 chalcone analogs. These compounds were evaluated as potential human MAO-A and MAO-B inhibitors. The compounds showed varied selectivity against the two isoforms. The IC50 values were found to be

Mammalian microRNAs predominantly act to decrease target mRNA levels
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous ∼22-nucleotide RNAs that mediate important gene-regulatory events by pairing to the mRNAs of protein-coding genes to direct their repression.

Eukaryotic mRNA with its 5′-cap is of central importance for the cell. Many studies involving mRNA require reliable preparation and modification of 5′-capped RNAs. Depending on the length of the desired capped RNA, chemical or enzymatic preparation – or a combination of both – can be advantageous.
