Sequence motifs that distinguish ATP(CTP) : tRNA nucleotidyl transferases from eubacterial poly(A) polymerases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
ATP(CTP):tRNA nucleotidyl transferases, tRNA maturing enzymes found in all organisms, and eubacterial poly(A) polymerases, enzymes involved in mRNA degradation, are so similar that until now their biochemical functions could not be distinguished by their

Polymorphic toxin systems: Comprehensive characterization of trafficking modes, processing, mechanisms of action, immunity and ecology using comparative genomics

open access: yesBiology Direct, 2012
Background Proteinaceous toxins are observed across all levels of inter-organismal and intra-genomic conflicts. These include recently discovered prokaryotic polymorphic toxin systems implicated in intra-specific conflicts.

Small Extracellular Vesicles in Gestational Diabetes Mellitus: Current Landscape and Emerging Diagnostic Horizons

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common metabolic disorder of pregnancy associated with significant maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality. Current diagnostic strategies, particularly the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT), are limited by late detection, variability in diagnostic criteria, and patient burden, highlighting the ...

Identification of proteins interacting with lupin and Arabidopsis tRNA nucleotidyltransferases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
ATP (CTP):tRNA nucleotidyltransferase catalyzes the addition of CMP and AMP residues to the 3 ' ends of tRNAs that have an incomplete CCA sequence. In eukaryotic cells, nuclear, mitochondrial and chloroplast genomes all encode tRNAs.

Divergent Evolution of Eukaryotic CC- and A-Adding Enzymes

open access: yes, 2020
Synthesis of the CCA end of essential tRNAs is performed either by CCA-adding enzymes or as a collaboration between enzymes restricted to CC- and A-incorporation. While the occurrence of such tRNA nucleotidyltransferases with partial activities seemed to

The potato cyst nematode Globodera pallida overcomes major potato resistance through selection on standing variation at a single locus

open access: yesNew Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 6, Page 3039-3059, March 2026.
Summary Globodera pallida poses a major threat to potato production, with management strategies primarily relying on genetic resistance. However, increasing virulence in field populations across Western Europe raises major concerns for G. pallida control.

Virulence Regulation and Lifestyle Transitions: The Role of c‐di‐GMP and Two‐Component Systems in Erwinia amylovora and Their Evolutionary Context Within Enterobacterales

open access: yesMolecular Plant Pathology, Volume 27, Issue 2, February 2026.
Erwinia amylovora infects apple blossoms by activating the T3SS, then spreads systemically via amylovoran‐mediated biofilms. Transitions between motile and sessile states are regulated by key two‐component systems and c‐di‐GMP. This review summarises infection biology, virulence factors, regulatory networks and evolutionary insights underlying fire ...

The structural basis of the catalytic mechanism and regulation of glucose-1-phosphate thymidylytransferase (Rm/A)

open access: yes, 2000
The synthesis of deoxy-thymidine di-phosphate (dTDP)-L-rhamnose, an important component of the cell wall of many microorganisms, is a target for therapeutic intervention. The first enzyme in the dTDP-L-rhamnose biosynthetic pathway is glucose-1-phosphate

Network Pharmacology‐Based Identification of Potential Targets and Mechanisms of Isoginkgetin in Gastric Cancer

open access: yesBioMed Research International, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Background Isoginkgetin (ISO) is a natural flavonoid with potential anticancer effects. However, the anticancer mechanisms of ISO in gastric cancer remain insufficiently explored. Methods Network pharmacology, TCGA data analysis, and molecular docking were employed to identify potential ISO targets and their involvement in gastric cancer ...

An inhibitory C-terminal region dictates the specificity of A-adding enzymes

open access: yes, 2011
For efficient aminoacylation, tRNAs carry the conserved 3′-terminal sequence C-C-A, which is synthesized by highly specific tRNA nucleotidyltransferases (CCA-adding enzymes).
