Unique deficits in the function of adult sensory neurons as part of their early neurodegeneration might account for progressive polyneuropathy during chronic diabetes mellitus.

Anomalous HIV-1 RNA, How Cap-Methylation Segregates Viral Transcripts by Form and Function
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 ...

Collaborative Duality of CircGLIS3(2) RNA and Protein in human Wound Repair
CircGLIS3(2), a circRNA transiently upregulated in dermal fibroblasts during acute wound healing, is induced by IL‐1α and TGF‐β. Its RNA activates fibroblasts into matrix‐secreting cells, while its encoded protein enhances proliferation. The RNA stabilizes PCOLCE, and the protein interacts with BTF3, collectively accelerating wound repair. Abstract The

The C-group Heterogeneous Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein Proteins Bind to the 5′ Stem-Loop of the U2 Small Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein Particle [PDF]
The C-group heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein (hnRNP) proteins bind to nascent pre-messenger RNA. In vitro studies have indicated that the C hnRNP proteins bind particularly strongly to the intron polypyrimidine tract of pre-mRNA and may be important for pre-mRNA splicing.

The SMN Tudor SIM-like domain is key to SmD1 and coilin interactions and to Cajal body biogenesis [PDF]
Cajal bodies (CBs) are nuclear organelles involved in the maturation of spliceosomal small nuclear ribonucleoproteins (snRNPs). They concentrate coilin, snRNPs and the survival motor neuron protein (SMN).

In this study, a novel mechanism is unveiled by which ADD1, acting as a molecular switch, coordinates actin branch dynamics and the transport of endocytic viruses and cargoes. Phosphorylation of ADD1 at Ser726 reduces actin branch density, enhancing endosome fusion and attachment to microtubules.

A Phase‐Separated SR Protein Reprograms Host Pre‐mRNA Splicing to Enhance Disease Susceptibility
This study identifies SR30, a splicing factor, as a negative regulator of tomato immunity. During Phytophthora infestans infection, the elevated SR30 forms nuclear condensates to suppress the alternative splicing (AS) of defense‐related genes in a phase separation manner.

Viral small nuclear ribonucleoproteins bind a protein implicated in messenger RNA destabilization.
Herpesvirus saimiri (HVS) is one of several primate viruses that carry genes for small RNAs. The five H. saimiri-encoded U RNAs (HSURs) are the most abundant viral transcripts expressed in transformed marmoset T lymphocytes.
