Purine nucleoside phosphorylase as a target for the treatment of interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome with and without Hunner lesions [PDF]
Chronic visceral pain disorders, such as interstitial cystitis/bladder pain syndrome (IC/BPS), are difficult to treat, and therapies are limited in number and efficacy.

Selective RNA Processing and Stabilization are Multi‐Layer and Stoichiometric Regulators of Gene Expression in Escherichia coli [PDF]
Selective RNA processing and stabilization (SRPS) facilitates the differential expression of multiple genes in polycistronic operons. However, how the coordinated actions of SRPS‐related enzymes affect stoichiometric regulation remains unclear.

Rapid Degradation of Hfq-Free RyhB inYersinia pestisby PNPase Independent of Putative Ribonucleolytic Complexes [PDF]
The RNA chaperone Hfq in bacteria stabilizes sRNAs by protecting them from the attack of ribonucleases. Upon release from Hfq, sRNAs are preferably degraded by PNPase. PNPase usually forms multienzyme ribonucleolytic complexes with endoribonuclease E and/

Ring around the Ro-sie: RNA-Mediated Alterations of PNPase Activity [PDF]
Chen et al. demonstrate a new way by which noncoding RNAs tailor the function of multicomponent complexes. They show that a noncoding RNA interacts with an exoribonuclease, altering its substrate specificity and enzymatic activity by serving as a ribonucleoprotein scaffold and, perhaps, a gate for entry of the RNA substrate.

Loop-mediated regulation and base flipping drive RNA cleavage by human mitochondrial PNPase. [PDF]
Human polynucleotide phosphorylase (hPNPase), a trimeric exoribonuclease, is crucial for maintaining mitochondrial RNA metabolism, including the regulated degradation of RNA.
