Topical gentamicin 0.1% promotes collagen 7 expression in recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa

open access: yesIndian Dermatology Online Journal, 2022
Background: Currently, there is no cure for epidermolysis bullosa (EB) but few studies have explored the role of aminoglycosides in promoting collagen 7 expression in recessive dystrophic EB (RDEB).

Posttranscriptional gene regulation by spatial rearrangement of the 3' untranslated region. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2008
Translation termination at premature termination codons (PTCs) triggers degradation of the aberrant mRNA, but the mechanism by which a termination event is defined as premature is still unclear.

Codon usage biases co-evolve with transcription termination machinery to suppress premature cleavage and polyadenylation

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Codon usage biases are found in all genomes and influence protein expression levels. The codon usage effect on protein expression was thought to be mainly due to its impact on translation.

Stop codon context influences genome-wide stimulation of termination codon readthrough by aminoglycosides

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Stop codon readthrough (SCR) occurs when the ribosome miscodes at a stop codon. Such readthrough events can be therapeutically desirable when a premature termination codon (PTC) is found in a critical gene.

Strategies against nonsense: oxadiazoles as translational readthrough-inducing drugs (TRIDs) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
This review focuses on the use of oxadiazoles as translational readthrough-inducing drugs (TRIDs) to rescue the functional full-length protein expression in mendelian genetic diseases caused by nonsense mutations.

Loss of LMOD1 impairs smooth muscle cytocontractility and causes megacystis microcolon intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome in humans and mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Megacystis microcolon intestinal hypoperistalsis syndrome (MMIHS) is a congenital visceral myopathy characterized by severe dilation of the urinary bladder and defective intestinal motility. The genetic basis of MMIHS has been ascribed to spontaneous and

Rous Sarcoma Virus RNA Stability Element Inhibits Deadenylation of mRNAs with Long 3′UTRs

open access: yesViruses, 2017
All retroviruses use their full-length primary transcript as the major mRNA for Group-specific antigen (Gag) capsid proteins. This results in a long 3′ untranslated region (UTR) downstream of the termination codon. In the case of Rous sarcoma virus (RSV),

Noisy splicing, more than expression regulation, explains why some exons are subject to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2009
Background Nonsense-mediated decay is a mechanism that degrades mRNAs with a premature termination codon. That some exons have premature termination codons at fixation is paradoxical: why make a transcript if it is only to be destroyed?
