RNase P Branches Out from RNP to Protein: Organelle-Triggered Diversification? [PDF]
, 2012 RNase P is the enzyme that removes 5′ leader sequences from precursor tRNAs. Remarkably, in most organisms, RNase P is a ribonucleoprotein particle where the RNA component is responsible for catalysis. In this issue of Genes \u26 Development, Gutmann and

AU-Rich Long 3′ Untranslated Region Regulates Gene Expression in Bacteria
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2018 3′ untranslated regions (3′ UTRs) and particularly long 3′ UTRs have been shown to act as a new class of post-transcriptional regulatory element. We previously reported that hmsT mRNA stability is negatively regulated by the 3′ UTR of hmsT in Yersinia ...

Cytoplasmic RNA decay pathways - enzymes and mechanisms [PDF]
, 2016 RNA decay plays a crucial role in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Work conducted over the last decades has defined the major mRNA decay pathways, as well as enzymes and their cofactors responsible for these processes. In contrast, our

Polynucleotide phosphorylase exonuclease and polymerase activities on single-stranded DNA ends are modulated by RecN, SsbA and RecA proteins [PDF]
, 2011 Bacillus subtilis pnpA gene product, polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase), is involved in double-strand break (DSB) repair via homologous recombination (HR) or non-homologous end-joining (NHEJ).

Enzymatic Synthesis and Fractionation of Fluorescent PolyU RNAs
Bio-Protocol, 2018 The physical properties of viral-length polyuridine (PolyU) RNAs, which cannot base-pair and form secondary structures, are compared with those of normal-composition RNAs, composed of comparable numbers of each of A, U, G and C nucleobases.

RNA Degradation in Staphylococcus aureus: Diversity of Ribonucleases and Their Impact
International Journal of Genomics, 2015 The regulation of RNA decay is now widely recognized as having a central role in bacterial adaption to environmental stress. Here we present an overview on the diversity of ribonucleases (RNases) and their impact at the posttranscriptional level in the ...

Yersiniae Virulence Factors: Type III Secretion System [PDF]
, 2008 Several Gram-negative pathogenic bacteria have evolved a complex protein secretion system termed the Type Three Secretion System (TTSS) to deliver bacterial effector proteins into host-cells that then modulate host-cellular functions.
