Nuclear Decay Factors Crack Up mRNA [PDF]
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Bresson et al. (2017) show that the nuclear RNA decay factors Nab3 and Mtr4 reshape the coding transcriptome during glucose starvation in budding yeast, placing nuclear mRNA metabolism as an important contributor of gene expression regulation.

Apoptosis is a tightly coordinated cell death program that damages mitochondria, DNA, proteins, and membrane lipids. Little is known about the fate of RNA as cells die.

Ornithine Decarboxylase mRNA is Stabilized in an mTORC1-dependent Manner in Ras-transformed Cells [PDF]
Upon Ras activation, ODC (ornithine decarboxylase) is markedly induced, and numerous studies suggest that ODC expression is controlled by Ras effector pathways. ODC is therefore a potential target in the treatment and prevention of Ras-driven tumours. In

Initiation of mRNA decay in bacteria [PDF]
The instability of messenger RNA is fundamental to the control of gene expression. In bacteria, mRNA degradation generally follows an "all-or-none" pattern. This implies that if control is to be efficient, it must occur at the initiating (and presumably rate-limiting) step of the degradation process. Studies of E. coli and B.

Virus-mediated mRNA decay by hyperadenylation [PDF]
Degradation of cellular mRNAs during Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus infection is associated with hyperadenylation of transcripts and a relocalization of cytoplasmic poly(A)-binding proteins to the nucleus.

Systematic analysis of cis-elements in unstable mRNAs demonstrates that CUGBP1 is a key regulator of mRNA decay in muscle cells. [PDF]
Dramatic changes in gene expression occur in response to extracellular stimuli and during differentiation. Although transcriptional effects are important, alterations in mRNA decay also play a major role in achieving rapid and massive changes in mRNA ...

tRNA ligase structure reveals kinetic competition between non-conventional mRNA splicing and mRNA decay. [PDF]
Yeast tRNA ligase (Trl1) is an essential trifunctional enzyme that catalyzes exon-exon ligation during tRNA biogenesis and the non-conventional splicing of HAC1 mRNA during the unfolded protein response (UPR).

Identification and functional analysis of novel phosphorylation sites in the RNA surveillance protein Upf1. [PDF]
One third of inherited genetic diseases are caused by mRNAs harboring premature termination codons as a result of nonsense mutations. These aberrant mRNAs are degraded by the Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay (NMD) pathway.

mRNA Degradation and Decay [PDF]
Why is it important to understand mRNA degradation in a cell? First,RNA degradation has a clearing function and removes RNAs arising from tran-scription, splicing, export, or translation “accidents” to ensure robust geneexpression (see Chap. 8). Second, while regulation of gene expression has a veryimportant transcription component, mRNAs must be ...
