HDAC6 Interacts With Poly (GA) and Modulates its Accumulation in c9FTD/ALS
The aberrant translation of a repeat expansion in chromosome 9 open reading frame 72 (C9orf72), the most common cause of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), results in the accumulation of toxic dipeptide repeat (DPR ...

The Yeast Pan2 Protein Is Required for Poly(A)-binding Protein-stimulated Poly(A)-nuclease Activity [PDF]
The removal of the mRNA poly(A) tail in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is stimulated by the poly(A)-binding protein (Pab1p). A large scale purification of the Pab1p-stimulated poly(A) ribonuclease (PAN) identifies a 76-kDa and two 135-Da polypeptides as candidate enzyme subunits.

Dependence of endothelial cell growth on substrate-bound fibronectin [PDF]
A better understanding of the mechanism of adhesion, spreading and proliferation of human endothelial cells (HEC) on polymeric surfaces may lead to the development of vascular prostheses which allow the formation of an endothelial lining on the luminal ...

Rotavirus NSP3 Is a Translational Surrogate of the Poly(A) Binding Protein-Poly(A) Complex [PDF]
ABSTRACT Through its interaction with the 5′ translation initiation factor eIF4G, poly(A) binding protein (PABP) facilitates the translation of 5′-capped and 3′-poly(A)-tailed mRNAs. Rotavirus mRNAs are capped but not polyadenylated, instead terminating in a 3′ GACC motif that is recognized by the viral protein NSP3, which competes ...

Characterization of the multimeric structure of poly(A)-binding protein on a poly(A) tail [PDF]
AbstractEukaryotic mature mRNAs possess a poly adenylate tail (poly(A)), to which multiple molecules of poly(A)-binding protein C1 (PABPC1) bind. PABPC1 regulates translation and mRNA metabolism by binding to regulatory proteins. To understand functional mechanism of the regulatory proteins, it is necessary to reveal how multiple molecules of PABPC1 ...

Identification of a Human Cytoplasmic Poly(A) Nuclease Complex Stimulated by Poly(A)-binding Protein [PDF]
The poly(A) tail shortening in mRNA, called deadenylation, is the first rate-limiting step in eukaryotic mRNA turnover, and the polyadenylate-binding protein (PABP) appears to be involved in the regulation of this step. However, the precise role of PABP remains largely unknown in higher eukaryotes.

A C9orf72 repeat expansion is the most common genetic cause of frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. One of the suggested pathomechanisms is toxicity from dipeptide repeat proteins (DPRs), which are generated via unconventional

Paip1 Interacts with Poly(A) Binding Protein through Two Independent Binding Motifs [PDF]
The 3' poly(A) tail of eukaryotic mRNAs plays an important role in the regulation of translation. The poly(A) binding protein (PABP) interacts with eukaryotic initiation factor 4G (eIF4G), a component of the eIF4F complex, which binds to the 5' cap structure.
