Rapid degradation of mutant SLC25A46 by the ubiquitin-proteasome system results in MFN1/2-mediated hyperfusion of mitochondria. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
SCL25A46 is a mitochondrial carrier protein that surprisingly localizes to the outer membrane and is distantly related to Ugo1. Here we show that a subset of SLC25A46 interacts with mitochondrial dynamics components and the MICOS complex.

Polynucleotide phosphorylase regulates multiple virulence factors and the stabilities of small RNAs RsmY/Z in Pseudomonas aeruginosa

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
Post-transcriptional regulation enables bacteria to quickly response to environmental stresses. Polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase), which contains an N-terminal catalytic core and C-terminal RNA binding KH-S1 domains, is involved in RNA processing ...

Composition and conservation of the mRNA-degrading machinery in bacteria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
RNA synthesis and decay counteract each other and therefore inversely regulate gene expression in pro- and eukaryotic cells by controlling the steady-state level of individual transcripts.

Oocyte Factors Suppress Mitochondrial Polynucleotide Phosphorylase to Remodel the Metabolome and Enhance Reprogramming

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
Oocyte factors not only drive somatic cell nuclear transfer reprogramming but also augment the efficiency and quality of induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) reprogramming.

Computational evolution of an RNA-binding protein towards enhanced oxidized-RNA binding

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2020
The oxidation of RNA has been implicated in the development of many diseases. Among the four ribonucleotides, guanosine is the most susceptible to oxidation, resulting in the formation of 8-oxo-7,8-dihydroguanosine (8-oxoG). Despite the limited knowledge

The crucial role of PNPase in the degradation of small RNAs that are not associated with Hfq [PDF]

open access: hybridRNA, 2012
The transient existence of small RNAs free of binding to the RNA chaperone Hfq is part of the normal dynamic lifecycle of a sRNA. Small RNAs are extremely labile when not associated with Hfq, but the mechanism by which Hfq stabilizes sRNAs has been elusive.

A Mutation in PNPT1, Encoding Mitochondrial-RNA-Import Protein PNPase, Causes Hereditary Hearing Loss [PDF]

open access: yesThe American Journal of Human Genetics, 2012
A subset of nuclear-encoded RNAs has to be imported into mitochondria for the proper replication and transcription of the mitochondrial genome and, hence, for proper mitochondrial function. Polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase or PNPT1) is one of the very few components known to be involved in this poorly characterized process in mammals.

Pyrazinoic Acid Inhibits the Bifunctional Enzyme (Rv2783) in Mycobacterium tuberculosis by Competing with tmRNA

open access: yesPathogens, 2019
Pyrazinamide (PZA) is a key drug for tuberculosis treatment. The active form of PZA, pyrazinoic acid (POA), appears to inhibit multiple targets in M. tuberculosis. Recently, the bifunctional enzyme Rv2783 was reported as a new target of POA. However, the

Maturation of Polycistronic mRNAs by the Endoribonuclease RNase Y and Its Associated Y-Complex in Bacillus Subtilis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Endonucleolytic cleavage within polycistronic mRNAs can lead to differential stability, and thus discordant abundance, among cotranscribed genes. RNase Y, the major endonuclease for mRNA decay in Bacillus subtilis, was originally identified for its ...

miRNAs as Influencers of Cell-Cell Communication in Tumor Microenvironment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
microRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the posttranscriptional level, inducing the degradation of the target mRNA or translational repression.
