SNUPN‐Related Muscular Dystrophy: Novel Phenotypic, Pathological and Functional Protein Insights [PDF]
Objective SNUPN‐related muscular dystrophy or LGMDR29 is a new entity that covers from a congenital or childhood onset pure muscular dystrophy to more complex phenotypes combining neurodevelopmental features, cataracts, or spinocerebellar ataxia. So far,

Independent deposition of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins and small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particles at sites of transcription. [PDF]
The major nuclear ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) involved in pre-mRNA processing are classified in broad terms either as small nuclear RNPs (snRNPs), which are major participants in the splicing reaction, or heterogeneous nuclear RNPs (hnRNPs), which traditionally have been thought to function in general pre-mRNA packaging.

Reconstitution of the U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle. [PDF]
Although the U1 small nuclear ribonucleoprotein particle (snRNP) was the first mRNA-splicing cofactor to be identified, the manner in which it functions in splicing is not precisely understood. Among the information required to understand how U1 snRNP participates in splicing, it will be necessary to know its structure.

Nuclear organization of splicing small nuclear ribonucleoproteins in adenovirus-infected cells [PDF]
We have studied the effect of adenovirus infection on the nuclear organization of splicing small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) in HeLa cells. In uninfected HeLa cells, snRNPs are widespread throughout the nucleoplasm but also are concentrated in specific nuclear structures, including coiled bodies, interchromatin granules, and perichromatin ...

U1RNP/lncRNA/Transcription Cycle Axis Promotes Tumorigenesis of Hepatocellular Carcinoma
As a component of the spliceosome, U1 small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (U1RNPs) play critical roles in RNA splicing, and recent studies have shown that U1RNPs could recruit long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) to chromatin which are involved in cancer ...

RNA elements directing in vivo assembly of the 7SK/MePCE/Larp7 transcriptional regulatory snRNP [PDF]
Through controlling the nuclear level of active positive transcription elongation factor b (P-TEFb), the 7SK small nuclear RNA (snRNA) functions as a key regulator of RNA polymerase II transcription.

Insights into the
The 164 bp U1 small nuclear (sn) RNA is one of the most abundant noncoding (nc) RNA in human cells, estimated to be in the region of 106 copies/cell. Although best known for its role in pre‐messenger RNA (mRNA) splicing events, research over the past 20 years has revealed diverse functions of this ncRNA in mammalian cell types.

Crystal Structures of Influenza A Virus Matrix Protein M1: Variations on a Theme [PDF]
Matrix protein 1 (M1) of the influenza A virus plays multiple roles in virion assembly and infection. Interest in the pH dependence of M1\u27s multiple functions led us to study the effect of subtle pH changes on M1 structure, resulting in the ...

Functional rescue of dystrophin deficiency in mice caused by frameshift mutations using Campylobacter jejuni Cas9 [PDF]
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a fatal, X-linked muscle wasting disease caused by mutations in the DMD gene. In 51% of DMD cases, a reading frame is disrupted because of deletion of several exons.
