Evidence for further non-coding RNA genes in the fungal rDNA region [PDF]
MycoKeys, 2022 Non-coding RNA (ncRNA) genes play important, but incompletely understood, roles in various cellular processes, notably translation and gene regulation.

Ribosomal control in RNA virus-infected cells
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2022 Viruses are strictly intracellular parasites requiring host cellular functions to complete their reproduction cycle involving virus infection of host cell, viral genome replication, viral protein translation, and virion release.

Varying strength of selection contributes to the intragenomic diversity of rRNA genes
Nature Communications, 2022 Ribosomal RNA genes are abundant in eukaryotic genomes and code for the universal and essential RNA components of the ribosome. This study uncovers high sequence diversity of the genes within a single species and discusses the contribution of selection ...

Nature Communications, 2021 Early steps of large 60S ribosomal subunit biogenesis are not well understood. Here, the authors combine biochemical experiments with protein-RNA crosslinking and mass spectrometry to show that the RNA helicase Dbp7 is key player during early 60S ...

Epitranscriptomics of Mammalian Mitochondrial Ribosomal RNA
Cells, 2020 Modified nucleotides are present in all ribosomal RNA molecules. Mitochondrial ribosomes are unique to have a set of methylated residues that includes universally conserved ones, those that could be found either in bacterial or in archaeal/eukaryotic ...

Massively parallel sequencing of human urinary exosome/microvesicle RNA reveals a predominance of non-coding RNA. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Intact RNA from exosomes/microvesicles (collectively referred to as microvesicles) has sparked much interest as potential biomarkers for the non-invasive analysis of disease.

The 23S Ribosomal RNA From Pyrococcus furiosus Is Circularly Permuted
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 Synthesis and assembly of ribosomal components are fundamental cellular processes and generally well-conserved within the main groups of organisms. Yet, provocative variations to the general schemes exist. We have discovered an unusual processing pathway

Autophagy regulates rRNA synthesis
Nucleus, 2022 Autophagy has emerged as a key regulator of cell metabolism. Recently, we have demonstrated that autophagy is involved in RNA metabolism by regulating ribosomal RNA (rRNA) synthesis.

Conformational switches control early maturation of the eukaryotic small ribosomal subunit
eLife, 2019 Eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis is initiated with the transcription of pre-ribosomal RNA at the 5’ external transcribed spacer, which directs the early association of assembly factors but is absent from the mature ribosome.
