Coactivator regulation of active site chemistry in the mRNA decapping enzyme Dcp2 [PDF]
Regulation of mRNA half-life is a crucial control point of gene expression. Removal of the protective 5' methylguanosine cap is a committed step in the 5'-3' decay pathway, which is carried out by the decapping enzyme Dpc2.

CUP promotes deadenylation and inhibits decapping of mRNA targets
CUP is an eIF4E-binding protein (4E-BP) that represses the expression of specific maternal mRNAs prior to their posterior localization. Here, we show that CUP employs multiple mechanisms to repress the expression of target mRNAs.

Decapping is preceded by 3' uridylation in a novel pathway of bulk mRNA turnover.
Both end structures of eukaryotic mRNAs, namely the 5' cap and 3' poly(A) tail, are necessary for transcript stability, and loss of either is sufficient to stimulate decay.

DCP1 forms asymmetric trimers to assemble into active mRNA decapping complexes in metazoa
DCP1 stimulates the decapping enzyme DCP2, which removes the mRNA 5' cap structure committing mRNAs to degradation. In multicellular eukaryotes, DCP1-DCP2 interaction is stabilized by additional proteins, including EDC4. However, most information on DCP2

Structural and Enzymatic Characterization of the Yeast mRNA Decapping Enzyme, Dcp2 [PDF]
mRNA turnover represents a fundamental point of post-transcriptional control of gene expression in eukaryotes. Decapping is a highly regulated, irreversible step in mRNA decay and is involved in many different decay pathways.
