Analysis of Nucleolar Protein Dynamics Reveals the Nuclear Degradation of Ribosomal Proteins [PDF]
, 2007 Background: The nucleolus is a subnuclear organelle in which rRNAs are transcribed, processed, and assembled with ribosomal proteins into ribosome subunits.

Function of the upstream activating factor in chromatin structure organization and transcriptional regulation at the yeast ribosomal DNA [PDF]
, 2010 Chromatin is the template of all processes involved in DNA metabolism in the eukaryotic cell. Accordingly, chromatin is a dynamic structure which changes in its composition and posttranslational modification correlating with the functional state of a ...

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Ribosomal RNA regulates chromosome clustering during mitosis
Cell Discovery, 2022 Noncoding RNAs are known to associate with mitotic chromosomes, but the identities and functions of chromosome-associated RNAs in mitosis remain elusive. Here, we show that rRNA species associate with condensed chromosomes during mitosis.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

RNA G-quadruplex structures control ribosomal protein production
Scientific Reports, 2021 Four-stranded G-quadruplex (G4) structures form from guanine-rich tracts, but the extent of their formation in cellular RNA and details of their role in RNA biology remain poorly defined.

RNA‐guided nucleotide modification of ribosomal and non‐ribosomal RNAs in Archaea [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 2004 SummaryArchaea use ribonucleoprotein (RNP) machines similar to those found in the eukaryotic nucleolus to methylate ribose residues in nascent ribosomal RNA. The archaeal complex required for this 2′‐O‐ribose‐methylation consists of the C/D box sRNA guide and three proteins, the core RNA‐binding aL7a protein, the aNop56 protein and the ...

A context‐dependent modulatory role for eIF6 in acquired resistance to vemurafenib in melanoma
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Acquired resistance to vemurafenib upregulates the translation factor eIF6 in melanoma cells. Silencing eIF6 in resistant cells reduces proliferation and partially restores drug sensitivity, whereas its overexpression increases sensitivity across melanoma lines regardless of BRAF status, via modulation of mTOR, S6K, and MAPK signaling.

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
