Initiation of mRNA decay in bacteria [PDF]

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2013
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.

Non-invasive measurement of mRNA decay reveals translation initiation as the major determinant of mRNA stability

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2017
The cytoplasmic abundance of mRNAs is strictly controlled through a balance of production and degradation. Whereas the control of mRNA synthesis through transcription has been well characterized, less is known about the regulation of mRNA turnover, and a

Virus-mediated mRNA decay by hyperadenylation [PDF]

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2009
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.

The 5' → 3' exoribonuclease XRN1/Pacman and its functions in cellular processes and development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
XRN1 is a 5' → 3' processive exoribonuclease that degrades mRNAs after they have been decapped. It is highly conserved in all eukaryotes, including homologs in Drosophila melanogaster (Pacman), Caenorhabditis elegans (XRN1), and Saccharomyces cerevisiae (

Transcriptome‐Wide Analysis of Messenger RNA Decay in Normal and Osteoarthritic Human Articular Chondrocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Objective Messenger RNA (mRNA) decay rates control not only gene expression levels, but also responsiveness to altered transcriptional input. We undertook this study to examine transcriptome‐wide posttranscriptional regulation in both normal and ...

Preconditioning of mesenchymal stromal cells with low-intensity ultrasound: influence on chondrogenesis and directed SOX9 signaling pathways [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: Continuous low-intensity ultrasound (cLIUS) facilitates the chondrogenic differentiation of human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in the absence of exogenously added transforming growth factor-beta (TGFβ) by upregulating the expression of ...

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.

Systematic analysis of cis-elements in unstable mRNAs demonstrates that CUGBP1 is a key regulator of mRNA decay in muscle cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
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 ...

Micro-RNA mediated regulation of a cytokine factor: TNF-alpha: an exploration of gene expression control in proliferating and quiescent cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Two types mechanisms that control gene expression involve cis-regulatory factors and trans-regulatory factors. Cis-acting regulatory RNAs include targeted messenger RNA (mRNA) specificity and AU-rich elements (AREs).

Applications of Little's Law to stochastic models of gene expression

open access: yes, 2010
The intrinsic stochasticity of gene expression can lead to large variations in protein levels across a population of cells. To explain this variability, different sources of mRNA fluctuations ('Poisson' and 'Telegraph' processes) have been proposed in ...
