Precise regulation of mRNA decay is fundamental for robust yet not exaggerated inflammatory responses to pathogens. However, a global model integrating regulation and functional consequences of inflammation‐associated mRNA decay remains to be established.

Conserved noncoding sequences are associated with rates of mRNA decay in Arabidopsis
Steady-state mRNA levels are tightly regulated through a combination of transcriptional and post-transcriptional control mechanisms. The discovery of cis-acting DNA elements that encode these control mechanisms is of high importance. We have investigated

Alterations in global mRNA decay broadly impact multiple stages of gene expression, although signals that connect these processes are incompletely defined.

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

Translation Initiation Control of RNase E-Mediated Decay of Polycistronic gal mRNA
In bacteria, mRNA decay is a major mechanism for regulating gene expression. In Escherichia coli, mRNA decay initiates with endonucleolytic cleavage by RNase E. Translating ribosomes impede RNase E cleavage, thus providing stability to mRNA.

The exonuclease Xrn1 activates transcription and translation of mRNAs encoding membrane proteins
The exonuclease Xrn1 mediates crosstalk between transcription and mRNA decay in yeast. Here the authors demonstrate that Xrn1 promotes translation of mRNAs encoding membrane proteins, coupling transcription, translation, and mRNA decay.

GC content shapes mRNA storage and decay in human cells
mRNA translation and decay appear often intimately linked although the rules of this interplay are poorly understood. In this study, we combined our recent P-body transcriptome with transcriptomes obtained following silencing of broadly acting mRNA decay

The translational repressors Nanos and Pumilio have divergent effects on presynaptic terminal growth and postsynaptic glutamate receptor subunit composition [PDF]
Pumilio (Pum) is a translational repressor that binds selectively to target mRNAs and recruits Nanos (Nos) as a corepressor. In the larval neuromuscular system, Pum represses expression of the translation factor eIF-4E and the glutamate receptor subunit ...

Nonsense-mediated mRNA Decay and Cancer
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a conserved mRNA surveillance pathway that cells use to ensure the quality of transcripts and to fine-tune transcript abundance. The role of NMD in cancer development is complex. In some cases, tumors have exploited NMD to downregulate gene expression by apparently selecting for mutations causing destruction of key

Insights into the assembly and architecture of a Staufen-mediated mRNA decay (SMD)-competent mRNP
The Staufen proteins recognize secondary structures in 3’-untranslated regions in mRNA transcripts and induce degradation of these mRNAs with the help of the RNA helicase UPF1.
