Drug hypersensitivity caused by alteration of the MHC-presented self-peptide repertoire [PDF]
, 2012 Idiosyncratic adverse drug reactions are unpredictable, dose independent and potentially life threatening; this makes them a major factor contributing to the cost and uncertainty of drug development. Clinical data suggest that many such reactions involve

Small Non-Coding RNAs Derived from Eukaryotic Ribosomal RNA
Non-Coding RNA, 2019 The advent of RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) technologies has markedly improved our knowledge and expanded the compendium of small non-coding RNAs, most of which derive from the processing of longer RNA precursors.

Ribosomal RNA, the lens into life [PDF]
RNA, 2015 Our world is, to a first approximation, a microbial world—even our own lives are evolutionarily and molecularly linked to that which we cannot see. This “invisible” world contains nearly unfathomable molecular and genetic diversity. Throughout the 20th century, a metaphor of “war against disease” prevailed: Microbes were hunted under the guise of ...

HMG-boxes, ribosomopathies and neurodegenerative disease
Frontiers in Genetics, 2023 The UBTF E210K neuroregression syndrome is a predominantly neurological disorder caused by recurrent de novo dominant variants in Upstream Binding Factor, that is, essential for transcription of the ribosomal RNA genes. This unusual form of ribosomopathy

RNA polymerase I mutant affects ribosomal RNA processing and ribosomal DNA stability
RNA BiologyTranscription is a major contributor to genomic instability. The ribosomal RNA (rDNA) gene locus consists of a head-to-tail repeat of the most actively transcribed genes in the genome.

The human methyltransferase ZCCHC4 catalyses N6-methyladenosine modification of 28S ribosomal RNA
Nucleic Acids Research, 2019 RNA methylations are essential both for RNA structure and function, and are introduced by a number of distinct methyltransferases (MTases). In recent years, N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification of eukaryotic mRNA has been subject to intense studies, and

Hepatitis C virus 3'UTR regulates viral translation through direct interactions with the host translation machinery. [PDF]
, 2013 The 3' untranslated region (3'UTR) of hepatitis C virus (HCV) messenger RNA stimulates viral translation by an undetermined mechanism. We identified a high affinity interaction, conserved among different HCV genotypes, between the HCV 3'UTR and the host ...

2′-O-Methylation of Ribosomal RNA: Towards an Epitranscriptomic Control of Translation?
Biomolecules, 2018 Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) undergoes post-transcriptional modification of over 200 nucleotides, predominantly 2′-O-methylation (2′-O-Me). 2′-O-Methylation protects RNA from hydrolysis and modifies RNA strand flexibility but does not contribute to Watson-Crick ...
