ABSTRACT Background Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) has been identified as a type I carcinogen and contributes to a high rate of gastric cancer (GC), especially in Eastern Asia. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have the potential to be used to detect various cancer types and diseases. However, the protein markers in EVs for the prognosis of H.

Heterozygous PNPT1 Variants Cause a Sensory Ataxic Neuropathy
ABSTRACT Background Biallelic variants in polyribonucleotide‐nucleotidyltransferase‐1 (PNPT1) have been associated with a range of phenotypes from syndromic hearing loss to Leigh's syndrome. More recently, heterozygous variants in PNPT1, have been reported in three families with cerebellar ataxia and prominent sensory neuropathy.

Transcription Kinetics in the Coronavirus Life Cycle
The steps involved in a Coronavirus infection are interconnected and exhibit complex kinetics, with some processes depending on each other, while others occur independently. Understanding the basic kinetics of major processes like translation, transcription, and virion assembly in the Coronavirus life cycle adds temporal resolution to the classical ...

Two Classes of Silencing RNAs Move between Caenorhabditis elegans Tissues [PDF]
Organism-wide RNA interference (RNAi) is due to the transport of mobile silencing RNA throughout the organism, but the identities of these mobile RNA species in animals are unknown. Here, we present genetic evidence that both the initial double-stranded

Adaptor‐Mediated Trafficking of Tank Binding Kinase 1 During Diverse Cellular Processes
TBK1 and its adaptor signaling play a crucial role in diverse biological processes, including innate immunity, selective autophagy, and mitosis. ABSTRACT The serine/threonine kinase, Tank Binding Kinase 1 (TBK1), drives distinct cellular processes like innate immune signaling, selective autophagy, and mitosis. It is suggested that the translocation and

Deinococcus radiodurans RNA ligase exemplifies a novel ligase clade with a distinctive N-terminal module that is important for 5′-PO(4) nick sealing and ligase adenylylation but dispensable for phosphodiester formation at an adenylylated nick [PDF]
Deinococcus radiodurans RNA ligase (DraRnl) is a template-directed ligase that seals nicked duplexes in which the 3′-OH strand is RNA. DraRnl is a 342 amino acid polypeptide composed of a C-terminal adenylyltransferase domain fused to a distinctive 126 ...

The landscape of Arabidopsis tRNA aminoacylation
SUMMARY The function of transfer RNAs (tRNAs) depends on enzymes that cleave primary transcript ends, add a 3′ CCA tail, introduce post‐transcriptional base modifications, and charge (aminoacylate) mature tRNAs with the correct amino acid. Maintaining an available pool of the resulting aminoacylated tRNAs is essential for protein synthesis.
