Essential Assembly Factor Rpf2 Forms Novel Interactions within the 5S RNP in
Ribosome biogenesis is a highly complex and conserved cellular process that is responsible for making ribosomes. During this process, there are several assembly steps that function as regulators to ensure proper ribosome formation.

RNA Proximity Labeling: A New Detection Tool for RNA–Protein Interactions
Multiple cellular functions are controlled by the interaction of RNAs and proteins. Together with the RNAs they control, RNA interacting proteins form RNA protein complexes, which are considered to serve as the true regulatory units for post ...

An improved method for surface immobilisation of RNA: application to small Non-Coding RNA - mRNA pairing [PDF]
Characterisation of RNA and its intermolecular interactions is increasing in importance as the inventory of known RNA functions continues to expand. RNA-RNA interactions are central to post-transcriptional gene regulation mechanisms in bacteria, and the ...

Trim25 is an RNA-specific activator of Lin28a/TuT4-mediated uridylation [PDF]
RNA binding proteins have thousands of cellular RNA targets and often exhibit opposite or passive molecular functions. Lin28a is a conserved RNA binding protein involved in pluripotency and tumorigenesis that was previously shown to trigger TuT4-mediated

iCLIP: Protein–RNA interactions at nucleotide resolution [PDF]
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are key players in the post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression. Precise knowledge about their binding sites is therefore critical to unravel their molecular function and to understand their role in development and disease.

Maf1-mediated repression of RNA polymerase III transcription inhibits tRNA degradation via RTD pathway [PDF]
tRNA precursors, which are transcribed by RNA polymerase III, undergo end-maturation, splicing and base modifications. Hypomodified tRNAs, such as tRNAVal(AAC), lacking 7-methylguanosine and 5-methylcytidine modifications, are subject to degradation by a

Protein–RNA interactions: structural characteristics and hotspot amino acids [PDF]
Structural information about protein–RNA complexes supports the understanding of crucial recognition processes in the cell, and it can allow the development of high affinity ligands to interfere with these processes. In this respect, the identification of amino acid hotspots is particularly important.

A translational repression reporter assay for the analysis of RNA-binding protein consensus sites
RNA-binding proteins are essential regulators of RNA processing and function. Translational repression assays can be used to study how they interact with specific RNA sequences by insertion of such a consensus sequence into the 5’ untranslated region of ...

A splicing-dependent transcriptional checkpoint associated with prespliceosome formation [PDF]
There is good evidence for functional interactions between splicing and transcription in eukaryotes, but how and why these processes are coupled remain unknown.
