Engineering of Glioblastoma‐Derived Biomimetic Vesicles and Their Structural and Molecular Features
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biomimetic nanosystems and vesicles have arisen as a novel approach to design vesicular transport systems with diverse therapeutic potential. The ‘biomimetic’ strategy involves the integration of cell membrane components into lipid bilayers, conferring them with biological properties originating from the cell of origin. Until now, most studies

Anomalous HIV-1 RNA, How Cap-Methylation Segregates Viral Transcripts by Form and Function
Viruses, 2022 The acquisition of m7G-cap-binding proteins is now recognized as a major variable driving the form and function of host RNAs. This manuscript compares the 5′-cap-RNA binding proteins that engage HIV-1 precursor RNAs, host mRNAs, small nuclear (sn)- and ...

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Lactate in cervical cancer induces HNRNPU K181 lactylation, opposed by NAA50‐mediated acetylation and suppressed by Pazopanib. This lactylation enhances HNRNPU binding to PHGDH pre‐mRNA exon 1, maintaining exon 1‐containing transcripts and mRNA stability, thereby activating serine metabolism.

Single molecule analysis reveals reversible and irreversible steps during spliceosome activation
eLife, 2016 The spliceosome is a complex machine composed of small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs) and accessory proteins that excises introns from pre-mRNAs.

UsnRNP trafficking is regulated by stress granules and compromised by mutant ALS proteins
Neurobiology of Disease, 2020 Activation of the integrated stress response (ISR), alterations in nucleo-cytoplasmic (N/C) transport and changes in alternative splicing regulation are all common traits of the pathogenesis of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS).

Multiple splicing factors are released from endogenous complexes during in vitro pre-mRNA splicing [PDF]
, 1989 Pre-mRNA splicing occurs in a macromolecular complex called the spliceosome. Efforts to isolate spliceosomes from in vitro splicing reactions have been hampered by the presence of endogenous complexes that copurify with de novo spliceosomes formed on ...

Trimethylguanosine nucleoside inhibits cross-linking between snurportin 1 and m3G-capped U1 snRNA [PDF]
, 2015 Macromolecular nuclear import is an energy-and signal-dependent process. The best characterized type of nuclear import consists of proteins carrying the classical NLS that is mediated by the heterodimeric receptor importin α/β. Spliceosomal snRNPs U1, U2,

The Survival of Motor Neuron Protein Acts as a Molecular Chaperone for mRNP Assembly
Cell Reports, 2017 Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a motor neuron disease caused by reduced levels of the survival of motor neuron (SMN) protein. SMN is part of a multiprotein complex that facilitates the assembly of spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs).
