Connexin 26 Functions as a Direct Transcriptional Regulator During the Cochlea Development

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Connexin26 can not only form intercellular channels that mediate rapid communication on the cell membrane, but also enter the nucleus as a transcription factor to directly regulate the transcription of nuclear genes. In the developing cochlea, Cx26 can control the maturation of the molecular scissor ADAM10 by regulating the transcription of TspanC8 ...

Preserving the Poly(A) Tail: Strategies Viruses Use to ‘CYA’ (Cover Your A’s)

open access: yesViruses
The poly(A) tail on viral mRNAs plays an important role in gene expression, given the role of the 3′ mRNA tail in mRNA stability and translation. Viruses have developed several strategies to maintain the integrity of their poly(A) tails.

Benchmarking sequencing methods and tools that facilitate the study of alternative polyadenylation

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2021
Background Alternative cleavage and polyadenylation (APA), an RNA processing event, occurs in over 70% of human protein-coding genes. APA results in mRNA transcripts with distinct 3′ ends.

From Natural Discovery to AI‐Guided Design: A Curated Collection of Compact Enhancers for Crop Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Precise transgene‐free gene upregulation remains a challenge in crop biotechnology, as conventional enhancers often exceed CRISPR‐mediated knock‐in size constraints and face regulatory hurdles. Here we establish a foundational cross‐species resource of compact transcriptional enhancers developed via STEM‐seq, a high‐throughput screening ...

Insights into organelle forming RNAs: Diversity, functions and future perspectives

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
RNA molecules play crucial roles in the formation and maintenance of cellular structures and organelles. These ‘organelle formation RNAs’ include ribosomal RNAs, paraspeckle‐forming RNAs, nuclear speckle‐forming RNAs, nucleolus‐forming RNAs, and cytoskeleton‐forming RNA.

Panicum Mosaic Virus and Its Satellites Acquire RNA Modifications Associated with Host-Mediated Antiviral Degradation

open access: yesmBio, 2019
Positive-sense RNA viruses in the Tombusviridae family have genomes lacking a 5′ cap structure and prototypical 3′ polyadenylation sequence. Instead, these viruses utilize an extensive network of intramolecular RNA-RNA interactions to direct viral ...

Co‐Opting MBNL‐Dependent Alternative Splicing Cassette Exons to Control Gene Therapy in Myotonic Dystrophy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a highly variable, multisystemic genetic disorder caused by a CTG repeat expansion in the 3′ untranslated region of DMPK. Toxicity is exerted by repeat‐containing DMPK transcripts that sequester muscleblind‐like (MBNL) proteins and lead to deleterious yet predictable changes in alternative splicing.

Exploring the Impact of Cleavage and Polyadenylation Factors on Pre-mRNA Splicing Across Eukaryotes

open access: yesG3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2017
In human, mouse, and Drosophila, the spliceosomal complex U1 snRNP (U1) protects transcripts from premature cleavage and polyadenylation at proximal intronic polyadenylation signals (PAS).

Experimental Genome-Wide Determination of RNA Polyadenylation in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
The polyadenylation of RNA is a near-universal feature of RNA metabolism in eukaryotes. This process has been studied in the model alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii using low-throughput (gene-by-gene) and high-throughput (transcriptome sequencing ...
