Identification of a novel human E-Cadherin splice variant andassessment of its effects upon EMT-related events [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Epithelial Cadherin (E-cadherin) is involved in calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion and signal transduction. The E-cadherin decrease/loss is a hallmark of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT), a key event in tumor progression.

Single-Molecule Imaging Uncovers Rules Governing Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay

open access: yesMolecules and Cells, 2019
Summary Nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) is a surveillance system that degrades mRNAs containing a premature termination codon (PTC) and plays important roles in protein homeostasis and disease.

mRNA Degradation and Decay [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
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 ...

Interactions between the HIV-1 Unspliced mRNA and Host mRNA Decay Machineries

open access: yesViruses, 2016
The human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) unspliced transcript is used both as mRNA for the synthesis of structural proteins and as the packaged genome. Given the presence of retained introns and instability AU-rich sequences, this viral transcript

Monitoring mRNA Half-Life in Arabidopsis Using Droplet Digital PCR

open access: yesPlants, 2022
mRNA decay is an important process in post-transcriptional regulation; in addition, it plays a crucial role in plant development and response to stress.

Long Non-Coding RNAs: New Players in Hematopoiesis and Leukemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are important regulators of gene expression that influence almost every step in the life cycle of genes, from transcription to mRNA splicing, RNA decay, and translation.

Dynamics of gene expression and the regulatory inference problem

open access: yes, 2008
From the response to external stimuli to cell division and death, the dynamics of living cells is based on the expression of specific genes at specific times.

Increased chromosomal radiosensitivity in asymptomatic carriers of a heterozygous BRCA1 mutation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Breast cancer risk increases drastically in individuals carrying a germline BRCA1 mutation. The exposure to ionizing radiation for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes of BRCA1 mutation carriers is counterintuitive, since BRCA1 is active in the

BR-bodies provide selectively permeable condensates that stimulate mRNA decay and prevent release of decay intermediates

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2019
Biomolecular condensates play a key role in organizing RNAs and proteins into membraneless organelles. Bacterial RNP-bodies (BR-bodies) are a biomolecular condensate containing the RNA degradosome mRNA decay machinery, but the biochemical function of ...

CELFish ways to modulate mRNA decay [PDF]

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Gene Regulatory Mechanisms, 2013
The CELF family of RNA-binding proteins regulates many steps of mRNA metabolism. Although their best characterized function is in pre-mRNA splice site choice, CELF family members are also powerful modulators of mRNA decay. In this review we focus on the different modes of regulation that CELF proteins employ to mediate mRNA decay by binding to GU-rich ...
