The Mimivirus L375 Nudix enzyme hydrolyzes the 5' mRNA cap.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The giant Mimivirus is a member of the nucleocytoplasmic large DNA viruses (NCLDV), a group of diverse viruses that contain double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) genomes that replicate primarily in eukaryotic hosts.

Interactions between Upf1 and the decapping factors Edc3 and Pat1 in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, mRNA transcripts with premature termination codons are targeted for deadenylation independent decapping and 5' to 3' decay in a quality control pathway termed nonsense-mediated decay (NMD).

Regulation of processing body formation in the budding yeast "Saccharomyces cerevisiae" [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The life cycle of mRNA, from transcription to decay, is a tightly regulated biological process. mRNA is an essential molecule that the cell utilizes to alter gene expression. Degradation is one process through which the cell can regulate mRNA levels.

The decapping activator Edc3 and the Q/N-rich domain of Lsm4 function together to enhance mRNA stability and alter mRNA decay pathway dependence in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesBiology Open, 2016
The rate and regulation of mRNA decay are major elements in the proper control of gene expression. Edc3 and Lsm4 are two decapping activator proteins that have previously been shown to function in the assembly of RNA granules termed P bodies.

mRNA Decapping Factors LSM1 and PAT Paralogs Are Involved in Turnip Mosaic Virus Viral Infection

open access: yesMolecular Plant-Microbe Interactions, 2022
Turnip mosaic virus is a devastating potyvirus infecting many economically important brassica crops. In response to this, the plant host engages its RNA silencing machinery, involving AGO proteins, as a prominent strategy to restrain turnip mosaic virus (

Functional Link between the Mammalian Exosome and mRNA Decapping [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Mechanistic understanding of mammalian mRNA turnover remains incomplete. We demonstrate that the 3′ to 5′ exoribonuclease decay pathway is a major contributor to mRNA decay both in cells and in cell extract.

HPat a decapping activator interacting with the miRNA effector complex.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Animal miRNAs commonly mediate mRNA degradation and/or translational repression by binding to their target mRNAs. Key factors for miRNA-mediated mRNA degradation are the components of the miRNA effector complex (AGO1 and GW182) and the general mRNA ...

The 'scavenger' m(7)GpppX pyrophosphatase activity of Dcs1 modulates nutrient-induced responses in yeast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Dcs1, the m(7)GpppX pyrophosphatase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, has been reported to 'scavenge' capped 51 end fragments generated by 3'-->5' mRNA degradation.

Exploring the role of RRM domains and conserved aromatic residues in RGG motif  of eIF4G-binding translation repressor protein Sbp1 [version 3; peer review: 3 approved, 1 approved with reservations]

open access: yesWellcome Open Research, 2021
Background: RNA binding proteins play crucial role in determining if a given mRNA will be translated, stored, or degraded. Sbp1 is an RGG-motif containing protein that is implicated in affecting mRNA decapping and translation.

Xp54 and related (DDX6-like) RNA helicases : roles in messenger RNP assembly, translation regulation and RNA degradation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The DEAD-box RNA helicase Xp54 is an integral component of the messenger ribonucleoprotein (mRNP) particles of Xenopus oocytes. In oocytes, several abundant proteins bind pre-mRNA transcripts to modulate nuclear export, RNA stability and translational ...
