Malaria infected red blood cells release small regulatory RNAs through extracellular vesicles [PDF]
The parasite Plasmodium falciparum causes the most severe form of malaria. Cell communication between parasites is an important mechanism to control population density and differentiation.

The sphere organelle contains small nuclear ribonucleoproteins. [PDF]
We show by immunofluorescence microscopy of amphibian oocyte nuclei that small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) occur in lampbrush chromosome loops, in a few dozen extrachromosomal organelles previously described as "spheres," and in thousands of smaller granules.

Gemin5: A Multitasking RNA-Binding Protein Involved in Translation Control
Gemin5 is a RNA-binding protein (RBP) that was first identified as a peripheral component of the survival of motor neurons (SMN) complex. This predominantly cytoplasmic protein recognises the small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) through its WD repeat domains ...

Cytoplasmic Assembly and Nuclear Accumulation of Mature Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein Particles
The assembly pathway of small nuclear ribonucleoprotein (snRNP) particles in the cytoplasm of L929 mouse fibroblasts was analyzed by observing the nuclear accumulation of snRNP proteins. Immunoprecipitations of nuclear and cytoplasmic fractions after a pulse label and chase indicate that the snRNP D, E, F, and G proteins assemble first, followed by the

Small Cajal body-specific RNAs (scaRNAs) are part of small Cajal body-specific ribonucleoproteins (scaRNPs) that modify small nuclear RNA (snRNA) in Cajal bodies (CBs).

Small nuclear ribonucleoproteins and heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoproteins in the amphibian germinal vesicle: loops, spheres, and snurposomes. [PDF]
We have examined the distribution of snRNPs in the germinal vesicle (GV) of frogs and salamanders by immunofluorescent staining and in situ nucleic acid hybridization. The major snRNAs involved in pre-mRNA splicing (U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6) occur together in nearly all loops of the lampbrush chromosomes, and in hundreds to thousands of small granules (1-

Nuclear hyaluronidase 2 drives alternative splicing of CD44 pre-mRNA to determine profibrotic or antifibrotic cell phenotype [PDF]
The cell surface protein CD44 is involved in diverse physiological processes, and its aberrant function is linked to various pathologies such as cancer, immune dysregulation, and fibrosis.

PARP-1 dependent recruitment of the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-associated protein FUS/TLS to sites of oxidative DNA damage [PDF]
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is associated with progressive degeneration of motor neurons. Several of the genes associated with this disease encode proteins involved in RNA processing, including fused-in-sarcoma/translocated-in-sarcoma (FUS/TLS ...
