Decoding RNA–protein interactions using high-throughput methods

open access: yesRNA Biology
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) constitute a diverse class of proteins essential for every stage of the gene expression process. Many RBPs are also linked to human diseases and pathologies.

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Endogenous ZAP is associated with altered Zika virus infection phenotype

open access: yesVirology Journal
The zinc finger antiviral protein 1 (ZAP) has broad antiviral activity. ZAP is an interferon (IFN)-stimulated gene, which itself may enhance type I IFN antiviral response.

Identifying the amino acid domains of ORF59 responsible for interactions with ORF57 and PAN RNA during KSHV lytic replication

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Kaposi’s sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) DNA polymerase processivity factor, ORF59, is a lytic protein essential for viral DNA synthesis as part of the core replication complex.

Trimolecular Fluorescence Complementation (TriFC) Assay for Direct Visualization of RNA-Protein Interaction in planta

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
RNA-Protein interactions play important roles in various eukaryotic biological processes. Molecular imaging of subcellular localization of RNA/protein complexes in plants is critical for understanding these interactions.

Going beyond Integration: The Emerging Role of HIV-1 Integrase in Virion Morphogenesis

open access: yesViruses, 2020
The HIV-1 integrase enzyme (IN) plays a critical role in the viral life cycle by integrating the reverse-transcribed viral DNA into the host chromosome. This function of IN has been well studied, and the knowledge gained has informed the design of small ...

Dynamic protein-RNA interactions in mediating splicing catalysis. [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res, 2019
The spliceosome is assembled via sequential interactions of pre-mRNA with five small nuclear RNAs and many proteins. Recent determination of cryo-EM structures for several spliceosomal complexes has provided deep insights into interactions between spliceosomal components and structural changes of the spliceosome between steps, but information on how ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Dissection and prediction of RNA-binding sites on proteins

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2010
RNA-binding proteins are involved in many important regulatory processes in cells and their study is essential for a complete understanding of living organisms. They show a large variability from both structural and functional points of view.

Molecular and Biochemical Techniques for Deciphering p53-MDM2 Regulatory Mechanisms

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
The p53 and Mouse double minute 2 (MDM2) proteins are hubs in extensive networks of interactions with multiple partners and functions. Intrinsically disordered regions help to adopt function-specific structural conformations in response to ligand binding
