RNA Turnover: Unexpected Consequences of Being Tailed [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
In eukaryotic cells, the 3′ poly(A) tails found on mRNA influence their stability and translation. The discovery of a second nuclear poly(A) polymerase complex has fueled a series of reports defining a new and unexpected role for 3′ end poly(A) tails in ...

Translation of dipeptide repeat proteins in C9ORF72 ALS/FTD through unique and redundant AUG initiation codons

open access: yeseLife, 2023
A hexanucleotide repeat expansion in C9ORF72 is the most common genetic cause of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). A hallmark of ALS/FTD pathology is the presence of dipeptide repeat (DPR) proteins, produced from both

Multiple covalent fluorescence labeling of eukaryotic mRNA at the poly(A) tail enhances translation and can be performed in living cells

open access: yesNucleic Acids Research, 2019
Post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression occurs by multiple mechanisms, including subcellular localization of mRNA and alteration of the poly(A) tail length. These mechanisms play crucial roles in the dynamics of cell polarization and embryonic

Evaluation of Stem-Loop Reverse Transcription and Poly-A Tail Extension in MicroRNA Analysis of Body Fluids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
MicroRNA has been demonstrated to be a viable tool for body fluid identification purposes in forensic casework. Stem-loop reverse transcription (slRT) is regularly used for cDNA synthesis from mature miRNA, along with poly-A tail extension.

The influence of microRNAs and poly(A) tail length on endogenous mRNA–protein complexes

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2017
Background All mRNAs are bound in vivo by proteins to form mRNA–protein complexes (mRNPs), but changes in the composition of mRNPs during posttranscriptional regulation remain largely unexplored. Here, we have analyzed, on a transcriptome-wide scale, how

Poly Vinyl Chloride Additives and Applications - A Review

open access: yesJournal of Risk Analysis and Crisis Response (JRACR), 2022
A Pure polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is a white, brittle material and it is the third-largest polymers produced after polyethylene and polypropylene as 40 million tons of PVC are produced yearly.

Comprehensive study of the radiation shielding feature of polyester polymers impregnated with iron filings

open access: yese-Polymers, 2023
Radiation and nuclear technologies have side effects in addition to their important applications, so appropriate shields must be used to protect users and the public from high doses as a result of exposure to this radiation. In this work, the attenuation

Poly(oligonucleotide) [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Chemical Society, 2014
Here we report the preparation of poly(oligonucleotide) brush polymers and amphiphilic brush copolymers from nucleic acid monomers via graft-through polymerization. We describe the polymerization of PNA-norbornyl monomers to yield poly-PNA (poly(peptide nucleic acid)) via ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) with the initiator, (IMesH2)(C5H5N ...

mRNA 3′ uridylation and poly(A) tail length sculpt the mammalian maternal transcriptome

open access: yesNature, 2017
A fundamental principle in biology is that the program for early development is established during oogenesis in the form of the maternal transcriptome. How the maternal transcriptome acquires the appropriate content and dosage of transcripts is not fully

Dual Requirement for Yeast hnRNP Nab2p in mRNA poly(A) Tail Length Control and Nuclear Export [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Recent studies of mRNA export factors have provided additional evidence for a mechanistic link between mRNA 3′‐end formation and nuclear export. Here, we identify Nab2p as a nuclear poly(A)‐binding protein required for both poly(A) tail length control ...
