RNA 5-Methylcytosine Facilitates the Maternal-to-Zygotic Transition by Preventing Maternal mRNA Decay.

open access: yesMolecules and Cells, 2019
The maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) is a conserved and fundamental process during which the maternal environment is converted to an environment of embryonic-driven development through dramatic reprogramming.

A career in (mRNA) decay [PDF]

open access: yesRNA, 2015
My entry into the RNA world began in 1967 when a visiting lecturer at the University of Toronto, the late Dr. Gordon Tener, inspired my interest in RNA. Various aspects of RNA biology, from ribosomes to plant viruses, occupied my attention during the early stages of my career.

Human fatty acid synthase mRNA: tissue distribution, genetic mapping, and kinetics of decay after glucose deprivation

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1995
To better understand the accelerated decay of fatty acid synthase (FAS) message that occurs after glucose deprivation (J. Biol. Chem. 1993. 268: 6961-6970), we characterized the 3‘ terminus of the human message and the kinetics of FAS mRNA decay in HepG2

The impact of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay on genetic disease, gene editing and cancer immunotherapy

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2019
Premature termination codons (PTCs) can result in the production of truncated proteins or the degradation of messenger RNAs by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD).

Suppressing nonsense--a surprising function for 5-azacytidine. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this issue of EMBO Molecular Medicine, Bhuvanagiri et al report on a chemical means to convert molecular junk into gold. They identify a chemical inhibitor of a quality control pathway that is best known for its ability to clear cells of rubbish, but ...

UPFront and center in RNA decay: UPF1 in nonsense-mediated mRNA decay and beyond

open access: yesRNA: A publication of the RNA Society, 2019
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), which is arguably the best-characterized translation-dependent regulatory pathway in mammals, selectively degrades mRNAs as a means of post-transcriptional gene control.

Interaction of yeast eIF4G with spliceosome components Implications in pre-mRNA processing events [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
International audienceAs evidenced from mammalian cells the eukaryotic translation initiation factor eIF4G has a putative role in nuclear RNA metabolism. Here we investigate whether this role is conserved in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

The CAF1-NOT complex of trypanosomes

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2014
In African trypanosomes, there is no control of transcription initiation by RNA polymerase II at the level of individual protein-coding genes. Transcription is polycistronic, and individual mRNAs are excised by trans splicing and polyadenylation.

Identification of novel post-transcriptional features in olfactory receptor family mRNAs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Olfactory receptor (Olfr) genes comprise the largest gene family in mice. Despite their importance in olfaction, how most Olfr mRNAs are regulated remains unexplored.

The rules and impact of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay in human cancers

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2016
Premature termination codons (PTCs) cause a large proportion of inherited human genetic diseases. PTC-containing transcripts can be degraded by an mRNA surveillance pathway termed nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). However, the efficiency of NMD varies;
