A cytoplasmic complex mediates specific mRNA recognition and localization in yeast [PDF]
In eukaryotes, hundreds of mRNAs are localized by specialized transport complexes. For localization, transcripts are recognized by RNA-binding proteins and incorporated into motor-containing messenger ribonucleoprotein particles (mRNPs).

Predicting RNA-binding residues from evolutionary information and sequence conservation
Background RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play crucial roles in post-transcriptional control of RNA. RBPs are designed to efficiently recognize specific RNA sequences after it is derived from the DNA sequence. To satisfy diverse functional requirements, RNA

RNA-protein interactions are often mediated by dedicated canonical RNA binding domains. However, interactions through non-canonical domains with unknown specificity are increasingly observed, raising the question how RNA targets are recognized. Knowledge

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.

Development of methods for the analysis of deep sequencing data; applications to the discovery of functions of RNA-binding proteins [PDF]
With the recent advances in nucleotide sequencing technologies, it became easy to generate tens of millions of reads with genome- or transcriptome-wide distribution with reduced cost and high accuracy.

RNA-binding proteins impact RNA processing including splicing, translation and RNA decay to dictate the fate of RNAs. Thus, insights into RNA-protein interactions in the cell provide insights into regulatory networks regulating gene expression at the ...

How do genomes gain new functional parts? In eukaryotes, which tend to evolve under weak selection, much of the genome is junk. Palazzo and Qiu borrow the logic of Markov chains to show how non‐functional DNA becomes functional through the appearance of intermediate states, which arise due to epistasis, buffering, and biochemical messiness, allowing ...

RNA-binding protein nucleolin in disease [PDF]
Nucleolin is a multifunctional protein localized primarily in the nucleolus, but also found in the nucleoplasm, cytoplasm and cell membrane. It is involved in several aspects of DNA metabolism, and participates extensively in RNA regulatory mechanisms, including transcription, ribosome assembly, mRNA stability and translation, and microRNA processing ...

Proteomic identification of heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein L as a novel component of SLM/Sam68 nuclear bodies [PDF]
Background: Active pre-mRNA splicing occurs co-transcriptionally, and takes place throughout the nucleoplasm of eukaryotic cells. Splicing decisions are controlled by networks of nuclear RNA-binding proteins and their target sequences, sometimes in ...

Contribution of disordered regions of the essential protein GEMIN5 to RNA binding
The RNA-binding domain of the human GEMIN5 protein consists of an oligomerizing extended surface, including a serine-rich motif and a disordered acidic cluster that cooperatively regulate RNA binding.
