Transcriptional and Post-transcriptional Gene Regulation by Long Non-coding RNA
Advances in genomics technology over recent years have led to the surprising discovery that the genome is far more pervasively transcribed than was previously appreciated.

Functional Role of Non-Coding RNAs during Epithelial-To-Mesenchymal Transition
Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a key biological process involved in a multitude of developmental and pathological events. It is characterized by the progressive loss of cell-to-cell contacts and actin cytoskeletal rearrangements, leading ...

microRNAs are small non-coding RNAs that play a key role in regulating gene expression. These molecules exert their function through sequence complementarity with microRNA responsive elements and are typically located in the 3′ untranslated region of ...

Target mRNA abundance dilutes microRNA and siRNA activity
Post‐transcriptional regulation by microRNAs and siRNAs depends not only on characteristics of individual binding sites in target mRNA molecules, but also on system‐level properties such as overall molecular concentrations.

Post-transcriptional regulation across human tissues.
Transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation shape tissue-type-specific proteomes, but their relative contributions remain contested. Estimates of the factors determining protein levels in human tissues do not distinguish between (i) the factors ...

sRNA scr5239 Involved in Feedback Loop Regulation of Streptomyces coelicolor Central Metabolism
In contrast to transcriptional regulation, post-transcriptional regulation and the role of small non-coding RNAs (sRNAs) in streptomycetes are not well studied. Here, we focus on the highly conserved sRNA scr5239 in Streptomyces coelicolor.

Social context prevents heat hormetic effects against mutagens during fish development
This study shows that sublethal heat stress protects fish embryos against ultraviolet radiation, a concept known as ‘hormesis’. However, chemical stress transmission between fish embryos negates this protective effect. By providing evidence for the mechanistic molecular basis of heat stress hormesis and interindividual stress communication, this study ...

Autophagy in cancer and protein conformational disorders
Autophagy plays a crucial role in numerous biological processes, including protein and organelle quality control, development, immunity, and metabolism. Hence, dysregulation or mutations in autophagy‐related genes have been implicated in a wide range of human diseases.

Influenza Virus Usurps an Interferon-Induced Translational Program to Promote Viral Replication
Hosts mount prudently tuned responses to viral infection in an attempt to block nearly every step of the replication cycle. Viruses must adapt to replicate in this hostile antiviral cellular state.

Evolutionary interplay between viruses and R‐loops
Viruses interact with specialized nucleic acid structures called R‐loops to influence host transcription, epigenetic states, latency, and immune evasion. This Perspective examines the roles of R‐loops in viral replication, integration, and silencing, and how viruses co‐opt or avoid these structures.
