Attenuated Codon Optimality Contributes to Neural-Specific mRNA Decay in Drosophila [PDF]
Cell Reports, 2018 Summary: Tissue-specific mRNA stability is important for cell fate and physiology, but the mechanisms involved are not fully understood. We found that zygotic mRNA stability in Drosophila correlates with codon content: optimal codons are enriched in ...

Inference of RNA decay rate from transcriptional profiling highlights the regulatory programs of Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2017 “mRNA abundance is determined by the rates of transcription and decay. Here, the authors propose a method for estimating the rate of differential mRNA decay from RNA-seq data and model mRNA stability in the brain, suggesting a link between mRNA stability

mRNA stability in the nucleus [PDF]
Journal of Zhejiang University SCIENCE B, 2014 Eukaryotic gene expression is controlled by different levels of biological events, such as transcription factors regulating the timing and strength of transcripts production, alteration of transcription rate by RNA processing, and mRNA stability during RNA processing and translation. RNAs, especially mRNAs, are relatively vulnerable molecules in living

PABPC1——mRNA stability, protein translation and tumorigenesis
Frontiers in Oncology, 2022 Mammalian poly A-binding proteins (PABPs) are highly conserved multifunctional RNA-binding proteins primarily involved in the regulation of mRNA translation and stability, of which PABPC1 is considered a central regulator of cytoplasmic mRNA homing and ...

Cellular polyamines modulate mRNA stability [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2017 Polyamines (PAs) are polycationic compounds found in all living organisms and play crucial roles in growth and survival. PAs interact with and modulate the functions of anionic macromolecules such as DNA, RNA and proteins. LHR1/PUT3 is a polyamine influx transporter localized in the plasma membrane in Arabidopsis.

CD69 is a TGF-β/1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 target gene in monocytes [PDF]
, 2013 CD69 is a transmembrane lectin that can be expressed on most hematopoietic cells. In monocytes, it has been functionally linked to the 5-lipoxygenase pathway in which the leukotrienes, a class of highly potent inflammatory mediators, are produced ...

Critical role of post-transcriptional regulation for IFN-γ in tumor-infiltrating T cells
OncoImmunology, 2019 Protective T cell responses against tumors require the production of Interferon gamma (IFN-γ). However, tumor-infiltrating T cells (TILs) gradually lose their capacity to produce IFN-γ and therefore fail to clear malignant cells.

The link between adjacent codon pairs and mRNA stability
BMC Genomics, 2017 Background Evidence in diverse organisms suggests that codon optimality is a major determinant of mRNA translation and degradation. Codon optimality is thought to act by modulating the efficiency of ribosome elongation.
