5SRNAdb: an information resource for 5S ribosomal RNAs [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2015 Ribosomal 5S RNA (5S rRNA) is the ubiquitous RNA component found in the large subunit of ribosomes in all known organisms. Due to its small size, abundance and evolutionary conservation 5S rRNA for many years now is used as a model molecule in studies on

rRNA loss induced by rifampicin addition in Escherichia coli reflects extraction artifacts rather than in vivo degradation [PDF]
Scientific ReportsWhen measuring RNA stability in Escherichia coli, RNA synthesis is usually stopped using rifampicin. Although rRNAs are considered stable in vivo, Hamouche et al. Ribosomal RNA degradation induced by the bacterial RNA polymerase inhibitor rifampicin. RNA

Karyotypic analysis and isolation of four DNA markers of the scleractinian coral Favites pentagona (Esper, 1795) (Scleractinia, Anthozoa, Cnidaria) [PDF]
Comparative Cytogenetics, 2022 We performed conventional and molecular cytogenetic studies on the Favites pentagona Esper, 1795, a scleractinian coral mostly found along the west coast of Japan. Karyotype analysis of F.

A novel association between two trypanosome-specific factors and the conserved L5-5S rRNA complex. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 P34 and P37 are two previously identified RNA binding proteins in the flagellate protozoan Trypanosoma brucei. RNA interference studies have determined that the proteins are involved in and essential for ribosome biogenesis.

Non-canonical binding interactions of the RNA recognition motif (RRM) domains of P34 protein modulate binding within the 5S ribonucleoprotein particle (5S RNP). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 RNA binding proteins are involved in many aspects of RNA metabolism. In Trypanosoma brucei, our laboratory has identified two trypanosome-specific RNA binding proteins P34 and P37 that are involved in the maturation of the 60S subunit during ribosome ...

Heterochromatic siRNAs and DDM1 independently silence aberrant 5S rDNA transcripts in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 5S ribosomal RNA gene repeats are arranged in heterochromatic arrays (5S rDNA) situated near the centromeres of Arabidopsis chromosomes. The chromatin remodeling factor DDM1 is known to maintain 5S rDNA methylation patterns while silencing transcription ...

Parasites & Vectors, 2023 Background Trypanosomes are single-celled eukaryotes that rely heavily on post-transcriptional mechanisms to regulate gene expression. RNA-binding proteins play essential roles in regulating the fate, abundance and translation of messenger RNAs (mRNAs ...
