Staufen Negatively Modulates MicroRNA Activity in Caenorhabditis elegans

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2016
The double-stranded RNA-binding protein Staufen has been implicated in various posttranscriptional gene regulatory processes. Here, we demonstrate that the Caenorhabditis elegans homolog of Staufen, STAU-1, functionally interacts with microRNAs.

Improved annotation of 3' untranslated regions and complex loci by combination of strand-specific direct RNA sequencing, RNA-seq and ESTs [PDF]

, 2013
The reference annotations made for a genome sequence provide the framework for all subsequent analyses of the genome. Correct annotation is particularly important when interpreting the results of RNA-seq experiments where short sequence reads are mapped ...

TGFβ1 Activates Lnc‐APUE to Promote Tumor Metastasis via the Alu Element‐Driven STAU1‐Mediated Decay of CDH1 mRNA

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We delineate a TGFβ1/SMAD/lnc‐APUE/E‐cadherin axis wherein TGFβ1 signaling activates lnc‐APUE; lnc‐APUE subsequently downregulates E‐cadherin expression via Alu element‐driven STAU1‐mediated decay of CDH1 mRNA, thereby promoting tumor metastasis. Our findings reveal a novel regulatory function for lnc‐APUE within the SMD pathway, elucidate a distinct ...

How to find RNA thermometers

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2014
Temperature is one of the decisive signals that a mammalian pathogen has entered its warm-blooded host. Among the many ways to register temperature changes, bacteria often use temperature-modulated structures in the untranslated region of mRNAs.

Evidence for RNA recombination between distinct isolates of Pepino mosaic virus. [PDF]

, 2010
Genetic recombination plays an important role in the evolution of virus genomes. In this study we analyzed publicly available genomic sequences of Pepino mosaic virus (PepMV) for recombination events using several bioinformatics tools.

Cloning and expression of porcine β1,4 N-acetylgalactosaminyl transferase encoding a new xenoreactive antigen [PDF]

, 2014
Xenograft rejection of pigs organs with an engineered mutation in the GGTA-1 gene (GTKO) remains a predominantly antibody mediated process which is directed to a variety of non-Gal protein and carbohydrate antigens.

Adipocyte‐Derived Exosomal miR‐5099 Mitigates M1 Macrophage Polarization and Adipose Inflammation via c‐Met/NF‐κB Axis to Improve Metabolic Health

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Celastrol upregulates adipocyte‐derived exosomal miR‐5099, suppressing the macrophage c‐Met/NF‐κB axis to mitigate pro‐inflammatory M1 polarization and adipose inflammation. These miR‐5099‐enriched exosomes also act as endocrine signals targeting the liver, muscle, and adipocytes to significantly enhance systemic insulin sensitivity.

Plus-strand RNA viruses hijack Musashi homolog 1 to shield viral RNA from cytoplasmic ribonuclease degradation

Journal of Virology
A successful strategy employed by RNA viruses to achieve replication is to evade host cell RNase degradation. However, the mechanisms through which plus-strand RNA viruses effectively shield viral RNA from cellular ribonuclease degradation remain unclear.

Cell morphogenesis proteins are translationally controlled through UTRs by the Ndr/LATS target Ssd1.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Eukaryotic cells control their growth and morphogenesis to maintain integrity and viability. Free-living cells are further challenged by their direct interaction with the environment and in many cases maintain a resilient cell wall to stay alive under ...

NUDT21 Drives T‐Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Through Dual Regulation of Alternative Polyadenylation and Transcriptional Activation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In summary, our study defines a coordinated oncogenic model in which NUDT21 integrates alternative polyadenylation–dependent UBE2D3 stabilization and transcriptional activation to sustain MYC‐driven T‐ALL cell survival, thereby establishing NUDT21 as a central regulatory node and a promising therapeutic target.
