Transfer RNA and Origins of RNA Interference [PDF]
Almost 30 years ago the first microRNA (miRNA) was detected (Lee et al., 1993), later put in mechanistical context by the discovery of the RNA interference (RNAi) and RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). miRNA is the variable RISC element (guide) that recognizes messenger RNA (mRNA) targets in the RNAi process facilitated by Argonaute (Ago) proteins ...

Transfer RNA is an essential adapter molecule that is found across all three domains of life. The primary role of transfer RNA resides in its critical involvement in the accurate translation of messenger RNA codons during protein synthesis and, therefore, ultimately in the determination of cellular gene expression.

Structural insights into RNA processing by the human RISC-loading complex. [PDF]
Targeted gene silencing by RNA interference (RNAi) requires loading of a short guide RNA (small interfering RNA (siRNA) or microRNA (miRNA)) onto an Argonaute protein to form the functional center of an RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC).

Broad role for YBX1 in defining the small noncoding RNA composition of exosomes. [PDF]
RNA is secreted from cells enclosed within extracellular vesicles (EVs). Defining the RNA composition of EVs is challenging due to their coisolation with contaminants, lack of knowledge of the mechanisms of RNA sorting into EVs, and limitations of ...

Characterization of Circulating Transfer RNA-Derived RNA Fragments in Cattle
The objective was to characterize naturally occurring circulating transfer RNA-derived RNA Fragments (tRFs) in cattle. Serum from eight clinically normal adult dairy cows was collected, and small non-coding RNAs were extracted immediately after ...

The current study describes the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of an egg parasitoid wasp, Telenomus remus Nixon 1937. This mitogenome is 16,014 bp in length, consisting of 37 typical coding genes (13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA ...

Biosynthetic pathway of mitochondrial ATPase subunit 9 in Neurospora crassa [PDF]
Subunit 9 of mitochondrial ATPase (Su9) is synthesized in reticulocyte lysates programmed with Neurospora poly A-RNA, and in a Neurospora cell free system as a precursor with a higher apparent molecular weight than the mature protein (Mr 16,400 vs.

Transfer RNA-derived small RNA: an emerging small non-coding RNA with key roles in cancer
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) promote protein translation by binding to the corresponding amino acids and transporting them to the ribosome, which is essential in protein translation.
