ABSTRACT The cytoskeleton of striated muscle integrates force transmission, mechanotransduction, and sarcolemmal stability through coordinated networks of sarcomeres, costameres, and intermediate filaments. Together, these systems establish mechanical continuity between the contractile apparatus, the sarcolemma, and the extracellular matrix.

Ribosomal frameshifting, jumping and readthrough
New examples of high-level ribosomal frameshift and readthrough events have been described over the past year and a half. These include -1 frameshifting at tandem codons and +1 frameshifting at neighboring slow codons. Several bizarre examples of ribosome jumping and multiple stop-codon readthrough continue to perplex investigators in this field.

Poly(A)-Binding Protein Regulates the Efficiency of Translation Termination
Summary: Multiple factors influence translation termination efficiency, including nonsense codon identity and immediate context. To determine whether the relative position of a nonsense codon within an open reading frame (ORF) influences termination ...

Prediction of Prion Proteins in E. coli Based on Bimodal Sequence Characteristics
ABSTRACT Prions are infectious proteins that bear misfolded conformations capable of converting folded states into misfolded aggregates under physiologically relevant conditions. In mammals, prions cause deadly maladies including Creutzfeldt‐Jakob and chronic wasting disease. To date, several prion proteins have been identified in eukaryotes, primarily

Investigation of Novel RNA Elements in the 3′UTR of Tobacco Necrosis Virus-D
RNA elements in the untranslated regions of plus-strand RNA viruses can control a variety of viral processes including translation, replication, packaging, and subgenomic mRNA production.

A 3‐year study across southern Australia aimed to characterize drivers of infection in the Myzus persicae–turnip yellows virus–Brassica napus pathosystem. Identification of key reservoir hosts and the strong association between earlier sowing and increased disease incidence highlight opportunities for targeted weed management, strategic sowing ...

Molecular Analysis of Translational Readthrough in Tobacco necrosis virus-D [PDF]
Plus-sense single-stranded RNA plant viruses are a large group of agriculturally and economically important plant pathogens. These viruses encode their own RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp), whose translation from the viral genome is critical for a ...

The mitogenome was transcribed into complete primary polycistrons on both strands. The heteropteran mitochondrial transcription termination factor (HmTTF) functions as a bidirectional attenuator rather than a terminator, and co‐evolution of HmTTF and the binding sites was observed.

ABSTRACT Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is an inherited mechanobullous genodermatosis caused by a mutation in genes encoding proteins integral to skin integrity. Premature termination codon readthrough therapies, such as gentamicin, have promise in facilitating full‐length protein expression in patients with EB.
