Cold stress affects rice growth and productivity. Defects in the plastid-localized pseudouridine synthase OsPUS1 affect chloroplast ribosome biogenesis, leading to low-temperature albino seedlings and accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

Structure of a functional ribonucleoprotein pseudouridine synthase bound to a substrate RNA. [PDF]
Box H/ACA small nucleolar and Cajal body ribonucleoprotein particles comprise the most complex pseudouridine synthases and are essential for ribosome and spliceosome maturation. The multistep and multicomponent-mediated enzyme mechanism remains only partially understood.

Chemistry of Fluorinated Pyrimidines in the Era of Personalized Medicine
We review developments in fluorine chemistry contributing to the more precise use of fluorinated pyrimidines (FPs) to treat cancer. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) is the most widely used FP and is used to treat > 2 million cancer patients each year.

A Novel Multimodal LC–MS/MS Panel for the Comprehensive Diagnosis of Neurometabolic Disorders in CSF
ABSTRACT Metabolic testing of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is essential for early diagnosis of neurometabolic disorders. However, the large number of differential diagnoses, the phenotypic variance within a clinical picture, and the disease rarity complicate targeted metabolic diagnostics.

Purification and properties of a mammalian tRNA pseudouridine synthase.
A tRNA pseudouridine synthase has been extensively purified from steer thymus extracts, using undermodified tRNA from hisT- mutants of Salmonella typhimurium as a substrate. The enzyme synthesizes a group of psi residues in the anticodon region of various hisT- isoacceptors and behaves like a eukaryotic homologue of Salmonella tRNA psi synthase I.

The gene for RsuA, the pseudouridine synthase that converts U516 to pseudouridine in 16S ribosomal RNA of Escherichia coli, has been deleted in strains MG1655 and BL21/DE3.

RNA Modifications: Current Understandings and Future Perspectives
Types of RNA modification. We have summarized the currently common types of RNA modifications, including ac4C, m6A, m1A, m5C, m3C, m7G, and ψ, and visually characterized their features through structural formulas. The characteristic structures are marked with a background color different from the background color.

A novel unanticipated type of pseudouridine synthase with homologs in bacteria, archaea, and eukarya [PDF]
Putative pseudouridine synthase genes are members of a class consisting of four subgroups that possess characteristic amino acid sequence motifs. These genes have been found in all organisms sequenced to date. In Escherichia coli, 10 such genes have been identified, and the 10 synthase gene products have been shown to function in making all of the ...
