Multi-omics analysis of expression and prognostic value of NSUN members in prostate cancer
BackgroundProstate cancer is the most common tumor in men worldwide, seriously threatening the health of older men, and 5-methylcytosine (m5C) RNA modification has been shown to have a significant impact on the development and progression of various ...

Mutations in NSUN2 Cause Autosomal- Recessive Intellectual Disability [PDF]
With a prevalence between 1 and 3%, hereditary forms of intellectual disability (ID) are among the most important problems in health care. Particularly, autosomal-recessive forms of the disorder have a very heterogeneous molecular basis, and genes with an increased number of disease-causing mutations are not common.

The RNA Methyltransferase NSUN2 and Its Potential Roles in Cancer [PDF]
5-methylcytosine is often associated as an epigenetic modifier in DNA. However, it is also found increasingly in a plethora of RNA species, predominantly transfer RNAs, but increasingly found in cytoplasmic and mitochondrial ribosomal RNAs, enhancer RNAs, and a number of long noncoding RNAs.

The Effect of Methyltransferase NSUN2 in Stroke
Abstract Stroke is one of the most important diseases that seriously threaten the health and public health of elderly patients.NSUN2 refers to the predominant methyltransferase for RNA m5C methylation, contributing to increased RNA stability, translocation and translation, and playing an important role in the physiopathology.

NSUN2 promotes osteosarcoma progression by enhancing the stability of FABP5 mRNA via m5C methylation
5-methylcytosine (m5C) modification, which is mainly induced by the RNA methyltransferase NSUN2 (NOP2/Sun domain family, member 2), is an important chemical posttranscriptional modification in mRNA and has been proven to play important roles in the ...

The nucleolar RNA methyltransferase Misu (NSun2) is required for mitotic spindle stability [PDF]
Myc-induced SUN domain–containing protein (Misu or NSun2) is a nucleolar RNA methyltransferase important for c-Myc–induced proliferation in skin, but the mechanisms by which Misu contributes to cell cycle progression are unknown.

The biogenesis pathway of tRNA-derived piRNAs in Bombyx germ cells. [PDF]
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) function in translational machinery and further serves as a source of short non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). tRNA-derived ncRNAs show differential expression profiles and play roles in many biological processes beyond translation ...

Stem cell function and stress response are controlled by protein synthesis. [PDF]
Whether protein synthesis and cellular stress response pathways interact to control stem cell function is currently unknown. Here we show that mouse skin stem cells synthesize less protein than their immediate progenitors in vivo, even when forced to ...
