Recent Advances on the Structure and Function of RNA Acetyltransferase Kre33/NAT10
Ribosome biogenesis is one of the most energy demanding processes in the cell. In eukaryotes, the main steps of this process occur in the nucleolus and include pre-ribosomal RNA (pre-rRNA) processing, post-transcriptional modifications, and assembly of ...

RNA G-quadruplex structures control ribosomal protein production
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.

5S Ribosomal RNA Database [PDF]
Ribosomal 5S RNA (5S rRNA) is an integral component of the large ribosomal subunit in all known organisms with the exception only of mitochondrial ribosomes of fungi and animals. It is thought to enhance protein synthesis by stabilization of a ribosome structure. This paper presents the updated database of 5S rRNA and their genes (5S rDNA).

Two RNA-binding motifs in eIF3 direct HCV IRES-dependent translation. [PDF]
The initiation of protein synthesis plays an essential regulatory role in human biology. At the center of the initiation pathway, the 13-subunit eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 (eIF3) controls access of other initiation factors and mRNA to the

Loss of m1acp3Ψ Ribosomal RNA Modification Is a Major Feature of Cancer
Summary: The ribosome is an RNA-protein complex that is essential for translation in all domains of life. The structural and catalytic core of the ribosome is its ribosomal RNA (rRNA).

Quantitative analysis of snoRNA association with pre-ribosomes and release of snR30 by Rok1 helicase [PDF]
In yeast, three small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are essential for the processing of pre-ribosomal RNA—U3, U14 and snR30—whereas 72 non-essential snoRNAs direct site-specific modification of pre-rRNA. We applied a quantitative screen for alterations in the

Cross-site comparison of ribosomal depletion kits for Illumina RNAseq library construction
Background Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) comprises at least 90% of total RNA extracted from mammalian tissue or cell line samples. Informative transcriptional profiling using massively parallel sequencing technologies requires either enrichment of mature poly ...

HMG-boxes, ribosomopathies and neurodegenerative disease
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

Orchestrating ribosomal RNA folding during ribosome assembly
AbstractConstruction of the eukaryotic ribosome is a complex process in which a nascent ribosomal RNA (rRNA) emerging from RNA Polymerase I hierarchically folds into a native three‐dimensional structure. Modular assembly of individual RNA domains through interactions with ribosomal proteins and a myriad of assembly factors permit efficient ...
