Mitochondrial DNA is a target of HBV integration
Communications Biology, 2023 Hepatitis B virus (HBV) may integrate into the genome of infected cells and contribute to hepatocarcinogenesis. However, the role of HBV integration in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development remains unclear.

Isolate Specific Cold Response of Yersinia enterocolitica in Transcriptional, Proteomic, and Membrane Physiological Changes [PDF]
, 2020 Yersinia enterocolitica, a zoonotic foodborne pathogen, is able to withstand low temperatures. This psychrotrophic ability allows it to multiply in food stored in refrigerators. However, little is known about the Y. enterocolitica cold response.

Molecular Microbiology, Volume 120, Issue 6, Page 874-892, December 2023., 2023 New functions for endoribonuclease III were unravelled in the facultative photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides by transcriptome analysis and phenotypic screening under three different growth conditions. The RNase III deficient mutant showed reduced pigmentation, linked to decreased expression of photosynthesis‐related mRNAs (bch and crt ...

A Novel Pathway of Functional microRNA Uptake and Mitochondria Delivery
Advanced Science, Volume 10, Issue 24, August 25, 2023., 2023 In the presence of serum, microRNAs (miRNAs) spontaneously form ≈110 nm nanoparticles, mediated bycationic proteins. When depleted, miRNA uptake is blocked. Unlike lysosome‐located, nanoparticle‐delivere mechanism are preferentially delivered to mitochondria of recipient cells by PNPT1.

Adenovirus-mediated hPNPase(old-35) gene transfer as a therapeutic strategy for neuroblastoma [PDF]
, 2009 Current treatment options for neuroblastoma fail to eradicate the disease in the majority of high-risk patients, clearly mandating development of innovative therapeutic strategies. Gene therapy represents a promising approach for reversing the neoplastic

How hydrolytic exoribonucleases impact human disease: Two sides of the same story
FEBS Open Bio, Volume 13, Issue 6, Page 957-974, June 2023., 2023 Ribonucleases (or simply RNases) are the enzymes responsible for the processing and degradation of all types of RNAs, having multiple roles in every aspect of RNA metabolism. Here, we review what is known about the involvement of the RNase II/RNB family of 3′–5′ exoribonucleases in human disease.

New Phytologist, Volume 238, Issue 6, Page 2375-2392, June 2023., 2023 Summary Mitochondrial biogenesis relies on nuclearly encoded factors, which regulate the expression of the organellar‐encoded genes. Pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) proteins constitute a major gene family in angiosperms that are pivotal in many aspects of mitochondrial (mt)RNA metabolism (e.g. trimming, splicing, or stability).

The endoribonucleolytic N-terminal half of Escherichia coli RNase E is evolutionarily conserved in Synechocystis sp. and other bacteria but not the C-terminal half, which is sufficient for degradosome assembly [PDF]
, 1998 Escherichia coli RNase E, an essential single-stranded specific endoribonuclease, is required for both ribosomal RNA processing and the rapid degradation of mRNA.
