No Correlation Between Interferon Signaling and Cytosolic Mitochondrial DNA/RNA Leakage in Cultured Skin Fibroblasts of Patients With Mitochondrial Diseases

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 4, April 2026.
Investigation of IFN signaling in cultured skin fibroblasts from patients with genetically confirmed mitochondrial diseases of diverse origins revealed that altered IFN signaling is an inconsistent feature of these disorders. Cytosolic accumulation of mtDNA and mtRNA was variably detected and showed little correlation with ISG scores.

Polynucleotide phosphorylase-deficient mutants of Pseudomonas putida

open access: yes, 2003
In bacteria, polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase) is one of the main exonucleolytic activities involved in RNA turnover and is widely conserved. In spite of this, PNPase does not seem to be essential for growth if the organisms are not subjected to ...

Defects of mitochondrial RNA turnover lead to the accumulation of double-stranded RNA in vivo.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2019
The RNA helicase SUV3 and the polynucleotide phosphorylase PNPase are involved in the degradation of mitochondrial mRNAs but their roles in vivo are not fully understood.

Localization of components of the RNA-degrading machine in Bacillus subtilis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
In bacteria, the control of mRNA stability is crucial to allow rapid adaptation to changing conditions. In most bacteria, RNA degradation is catalyzed by the RNA degradosome, a protein complex composed of endo- and exoribonucleases, RNA helicases and ...

A PNPase dependent CRISPR System in Listeria. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
The human bacterial pathogen Listeria monocytogenes is emerging as a model organism to study RNA-mediated regulation in pathogenic bacteria. A class of non-coding RNAs called CRISPRs (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) has been ...

Analysis of mRNA Decay Intermediates in Bacillus subtilis 3′ Exoribonuclease and RNA Helicase Mutant Strains

open access: yesmBio, 2022
The Bacillus subtilis genome encodes four 3′ exoribonucleases: polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase), RNase R, RNase PH, and YhaM. Previous work showed that PNPase, encoded by the pnpA gene, is the major 3′ exonuclease involved in mRNA turnover; in a ...

Human FASTK preferentially binds single‐stranded and G‐rich RNA

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 3, Page 729-748, February 2026.
Although FASTK is known to play a role in mRNA biology, the mechanism through which it recognizes RNA has yet to be unraveled. Here, we used purified human FASTK to characterize its RNA‐binding properties in vitro. We found that FASTK prefers ssRNA oligonucleotides containing guanines with the potential to form G‐quadruplexes and binds robustly to any ...

Characterization of the biochemical properties of Campylobacter jejuni RNase III

open access: yesBioscience Reports, 2013
Campylobacter jejuni is a foodborne bacterial pathogen, which is now considered as a leading cause of human bacterial gastroenteritis. The information regarding ribonucleases in C.

The ribonuclease PNPase is a key regulator of biofilm formation in Listeria monocytogenes and affects invasion of host cells

open access: yesnpj Biofilms and Microbiomes, 2023
Biofilms provide an environment that protects microorganisms from external stresses such as nutrient deprivation, antibiotic treatments, and immune defences, thereby creating favorable conditions for bacterial survival and pathogenesis. Here we show that

Graphene‐Based Liquid Cell Designs for In Situ Liquid‐Phase Transmission Electron Microscopy: Recent Developments and Perspectives

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 5, Issue 12, December 2025.
This review highlights the advances in graphene liquid cell designs for in situ liquid‐phase transmission electron microscopy, spanning veil‐type, well‐type, liquid‐flowing‐type, and mixing‐type configurations. These developments collectively enable real‐time visualization of diverse reactions in liquid environments at atomic resolution, thereby ...
