Localized mRNA is the norm [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Cell Biology, 2007
![Graphic][1] Many different mRNAs (green) stake out specific locations in fly embryo cells. KRAUSE/ELSEVIER Location, location, location. It's critical for real estate, proteins, and—according to work by Eric Lecuyer, Henry Krause, and colleagues (University of Toronto ...

From junk to function — How weak selection in eukaryotes builds new parts and drives genomic complexity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

Smaller is better: nanobodies meet NMR

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nanobodies are single‐domain antigen‐binding fragments derived from camelid heavy chain antibodies. Their small size, high stability, and exceptional specificity make nanobodies uniquely useful probes for NMR studies of protein dynamics, transient conformational states, and protein–protein interactions.

Localization and anchoring of mRNA in budding yeast [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 1999
Eukaryotic cells localize selected mRNAs to a region of the cell as a means to sequester proteins. Signals within the 3' untranslated region (3' UTR) facilitate mRNA localization by both actin and microtubule cytoskeletal systems. Recently, an mRNA in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, ASH1, was shown to coalesce into a discrete particle that is ...

Membrane composition and thermodynamic identity as boundaries of life for synthetic cell research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
What makes a cell a cell? The boundary of a living cell is not just a wall. Read as a Markov blanket, the membrane separates internal from external states, generating identity and non‐equilibrium order. Can this identity be rebuilt from scratch in a synthetic cell?

DRpred: A Novel Deep Learning-Based Predictor for Multi-Label mRNA Subcellular Localization Prediction by Incorporating Bayesian Inferred Prior Label Relationships

open access: yesBiomolecules
The subcellular localization of messenger RNA (mRNA) not only helps us to understand the localization regulation of gene expression but also helps to understand the relationship between RNA localization pattern and human disease mechanism, which has ...

Mammalian Neuronal mRNA Transport Complexes: The Few Knowns and the Many Unknowns

open access: yesFrontiers in Integrative Neuroscience, 2021
Hundreds of messenger RNAs (mRNAs) are transported into neurites to provide templates for the assembly of local protein networks. These networks enable a neuron to configure different cellular domains for specialized functions.

A mRNA and Cognate MicroRNAs Localize in the Nucleolus [PDF]

open access: yesNucleus, 2014
We previously discovered that a set of 5 microRNAs are concentrated in the nucleolus of rat myoblasts. We now report that several mRNAs are also localized in the nucleoli of these cells as determined by microarray analysis of RNA from purified nucleoli.
