Effect of Larval Nutrition on Maternal mRNA Contribution to the Drosophila Egg. [PDF]
, 2018 Embryonic development begins under the control of maternal gene products, mRNAs and proteins that the mother deposits into the egg; the zygotic genome is activated some time later. Maternal control of early development is conserved across metazoans. Gene

Recognition of Polyadenylate RNA by the Poly(A)-Binding Protein [PDF]
Cell, 1999 The cocrystal structure of human poly(A)-binding protein (PABP) has been determined at 2.6 A resolution. PABP recognizes the 3' mRNA poly(A) tail and plays critical roles in eukaryotic translation initiation and mRNA stabilization/degradation. The minimal PABP used in this study consists of the N-terminal two RRM-type RNA-binding domains connected by a

4D‐Printed Magneto‐Plasmonic Microrobots for Programmable Spatiotemporal De‐Icing
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A 4D‐printing strategy is introduced to achieve programmable de‐icing devices. By aligning gold–magnetite nanofillers within a photosensitive resin, the printed structures exhibit dual magnetic and plasmonic functionalities, enabling precise spatio‐temporal ice removal through thermoplasmonic effects.

Bidirectional nucleolar dysfunction in C9orf72 frontotemporal lobar degeneration
Acta Neuropathologica Communications, 2017 An intronic GGGGCC expansion in C9orf72 is the most common known cause of both frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). The repeat expansion leads to the generation of sense and antisense repeat RNA aggregates and

Characterization of the Soluble Nanoparticles Formed through Coulombic Interaction of Bovine Serum Albumin with Anionic Graft Copolymers at Low pH [PDF]
, 2007 A static light scattering (SLS) study of bovine serum albumin (BSA) mixtures with two anionic graft copolymers of poly (sodium acrylate-co-sodium 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulphonate)-graft-poly (N, N-dimethylacrylamide), with a high composition in ...

Dynamic interaction of poly(A)-binding protein with the ribosome [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 Abstract Eukaryotic mRNA has a cap structure and a poly(A) tail at the 5′ and 3′ ends, respectively. The cap structure is recognized by eIF (eukaryotic translation initiation factor) 4 F, while the poly(A) tail is bound by poly(A)-binding protein (PABP).

A minimum principle in mRNA editing ?
, 2001 mRNA editing of sequences of many species is analyzed. The nature of the inserted nucleotides and the position of the insertion sites, once fixed the edited peptide chain, are explained by introducing a minimum principle in the framework of the crystal ...

The agrin gene codes for a family of basal lamina proteins that differ in function and distribution [PDF]
, 1992 We isolated two cDNAs that encode isoforms of agrin, the basal lamina protein that mediates the motor neuron-induced aggregation of acetylcholine receptors on muscle fibers at the neuromuscular junction.
