Roles of ER Membrane Protein Complex in Protein Biogenesis and Quality Control in the Lung and Beyond

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
The endoplasmic reticulum membrane protein complex (EMC) is an evolutionarily conserved, multi‐subunit transmembrane protein complex crucial to membrane protein biogenesis and cellular protein quality control. This review systematically examines the structure, functions and disease‐associated regulatory mechanisms of EMC across multiple organ systems ...

Transcriptional frameshifting rescues Citrobacter rodentium Type VI secretion by the production of two length variants from the prematurely interrupted tssM gene [PDF]

, 2013
The Type VI secretion system (T6SS) mediates toxin delivery into both eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. It is composed of a cytoplasmic structure resembling the tail of contractile bacteriophages anchored to the cell envelope through a membrane complex ...

Genetic dissection reveals distinct contributions of the eS31 N‐terminal domain to translational accuracy in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The eukaryote‐specific N‐terminal domain (NTD) of eS31 uses two distinct strategies to maintain translation fidelity. During elongation, a positively charged “hotspot” fine‐tunes the selection of incoming aa‐tRNA. During termination, the entire NTD acts as a structural scaffold to ensure the correct positioning of the release factor eRF1.

PRELIMINARY GENETIC CHARACTERIZATION OF RIBOSOMAL PROTEIN L10 IN SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE [PDF]

, 2005
While recent research has focused on the exciting concept of the ribosome as a ribozyme, ribosomal proteins have been largely overlooked. This study focuses on four previously identified mutants of the ribosomal large subunit protein L10, in an effort to

Control of gene expression in the retrotransposon Tca2 [PDF]

, 2007
BACKGROUND:In the C. albicans retrotransposon Tca2, the gag and pol ORFs are separated by a UGA stop codon, 3' of which is a potential RNA pseudoknot. It is unclear how the Tca2 gag UGA codon is bypassed to allow pol expression.

Arsenite methyltransferase 3 is required for mitochondrial function and hepatic lipid metabolism

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
AS3MT is a protein that helps the body process arsenic, a naturally occurring toxin found in water and soil. We discovered it also helps cells make and use energy properly. Without AS3MT, cells' mitochondria do not work well, leading to fatty liver and reduced activity. Increasing AS3MT in liver cells restores energy and protects against arsenic damage,

Eukaryotic release factor 1 from Euplotes promotes frameshifting at premature stop codons in human cells

iScience
Summary: Human physiology is highly susceptible to frameshift mutations within coding regions, and many hereditary diseases and cancers are caused by such indels.

Antenatal Presentation of MRPS22‐Related Mitochondrial Disease Confirmed With Rapid Proteomics

JIMD Reports, Volume 67, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT MRPS22‐related mitochondrial disease (MIM#611719) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by defects in the mitochondrial ribosomal protein S22, a component of the small mitoribosomal subunit essential for mitochondrial translation. Of the few reported cases, most present antenatally with a severe phenotype, conveying a poor prognosis ...

Ecuador Paraiso Escondido virus, a new flavivirus isolated from New World sand flies in Ecuador, is the first representative of a novel clade in the genus flavivirus [PDF]

, 2015
A new flavivirus, Ecuador Paraiso Escondido virus (EPEV), named after the village where it was discovered, was isolated from sand flies (Psathyromyia abonnenci, formerly Lutzomyia abonnenci) that are unique to the New World.

Serial Spatial Transcriptomes Reveal Regulatory Transitions in Maize Leaf Development

Plant Biotechnology Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, Page 2787-2810, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Plant leaves originate from the shoot apical meristem (SAM) and undergo a developmental process of highly coordinated gene expression regulation. To date, only a few key regulators have been identified and characterised, so the gene expression cascades responsible for leaf cell specification and differentiation from SAM remain largely elusive.
