Pre-sequencing assessment of RNA-Seq library quality using real-time qPCR
RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) is an essential assay for studying transcriptome profiling. Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) comprises more than 80–90% of total cellular RNA; efficient removal is essential for accurately capturing transcriptomes, particularly to sequence ...

Variation of expression levels of seven housekeeping genes at different life-history stages in Porphyra yezoensis. [PDF]
In order to identify the optimal internal control for relative real-time PCR when studying target gene expression in the red alga Porphyra yezoensis, we quantified the expression of seven housekeeping genes (18S ribosomal RNA, 30S ribosomal protein S8 ...

In Situ Detection of Aspergillus 18S Ribosomal RNA in Invasive Pulmonary Apergillosis.
We attempted to evaluate the usefulness of in situ hybridization (ISH) in the specific diagnosis of Aspergillus pulmonary infection.We used an ISH technique using a multiple digoxigenin-incorporating probe, which was constructed by means of the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) from the 18S ribosomal RNA of Aspergillus fumigatus.We studied twelve ...

Abruptly changing from aerobic to anaerobic conditions (sudden anaerobization) induced growth inhibition and a significant increase in intracellular labile ferrous iron in the aerotolerant anaerobe Amphibacillus xylanus. We found that free flavins mediate efficient electron transfer from NADH to ferric iron under anaerobic conditions, suggesting that ...

Malformin A1–mediated cytotoxicity in ovarian cancer cells occurs through pyroptosis and autophagy
This study investigated the effects of the natural compound Malformin A1 (MA1) on the cytoskeleton that regulates cell proliferation and migration. Disruption of the cytoskeleton can impair these processes and promote cancer cell death. MA1 disrupted cytoskeletal organization, induced DNA damage, inflammation, activated autophagy, and pyroptosis ...

Cic1p/Nsa3p is required for synthesis and nuclear export of 60S ribosomal subunits [PDF]
Cic1p/Nsa3p was previously reported to be associated with the 26S proteasome and required for the degradation of specific substrates, but was also shown to be associated with early pre-60S particles and to be localized to the nucleolus.

H/ACA snR30 snoRNP guides independent 18S rRNA subdomain formation
Ribosome biogenesis follows a cascade of pre-rRNA folding and processing steps, coordinated with ribosomal protein incorporation. Nucleolar 90S pre-ribosomes are well-described stable intermediates, composed of pre-18S rRNA, ribosomal S-proteins, U3 ...

Conservation of the 5'-Terminal Nucleotide Sequences of Ribosomal 18-S RNA in Eukaryotes. Differential Evolution of Large and Small Ribosomal RNA [PDF]
The 5'-terminal nucleotide sequences of ribosomal 18-S and 28-S RNA of seven species of eukaryotes including three mammals, one bird, one amphibian, one echinoderm and one slime mold, were analyzed either by means of terminal phosphorylation of RNA with polynucleotide kinase of by fingerprint analysis of uniformly labeled RNA. The following conclusions

Evaluating the effect of γ‐oryzanol on MASLD pathology using a medaka fish model
This study explores a liver disease called MASLD, which is increasing worldwide and can lead to serious damage. Researchers used medaka fish instead of rodents to test a food compound, γ‐oryzanol. Fish fed this compound had less liver fat and healthier gut bacteria.

Background Tandemly arranged nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA), encoding 18S, 5.8S and 26S ribosomal RNA (rRNA), exhibit concerted evolution, a pattern thought to result from the homogenisation of rDNA arrays. However rDNA homogeneity at the single nucleotide
