Characterization of a novel association between two trypanosome-specific proteins and 5S rRNA. [PDF]
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 essential and are involved in ribosome biogenesis.

Saturation mutagenesis reveals manifold determinants of exon definition. [PDF]
To illuminate the extent and roles of exonic sequences in the splicing of human RNA transcripts, we conducted saturation mutagenesis of a 51-nt internal exon in a three-exon minigene.

The regulatory impact of RNA-binding proteins on microRNA targeting
Argonaute is the primary mediator of metazoan miRNA targeting (MT). Among the currently identified >1,500 human RNA-binding proteins (RBPs), there are only a handful of RBPs known to enhance MT and several others reported to suppress MT, leaving the ...

RNA Binding Proteins in the miRNA Pathway [PDF]
microRNAs (miRNAs) are short ~22 nucleotides (nt) ribonucleic acids which post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression. miRNAs are key regulators of all cellular processes, and the correct expression of miRNAs in an organism is crucial for proper development and cellular function. As a result, the miRNA biogenesis pathway is highly regulated.

Two RNA-binding proteins mediate the sorting of miR223 from mitochondria into exosomes
Fusion of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) with the plasma membrane results in the secretion of intraluminal vesicles (ILVs), or exosomes. The sorting of one exosomal cargo RNA, miR223, is facilitated by the RNA-binding protein, YBX1 (Shurtleff et al., 2016).

Trim25 is an RNA-specific activator of Lin28a/TuT4-mediated uridylation [PDF]
SummaryRNA binding proteins have thousands of cellular RNA targets and often exhibit opposite or passive molecular functions. Lin28a is a conserved RNA binding protein involved in pluripotency and tumorigenesis that was previously shown to trigger TuT4 ...

RNA-Binding Proteins in Plant Immunity [PDF]
Plant defence responses against pathogen infection are crucial to plant survival. The high degree of regulation of plant immunity occurs both transcriptionally and posttranscriptionally. Once transcribed, target gene RNA must be processed prior to translation. This includes polyadenylation,5′capping, editing, splicing, and mRNA export.

Gadd45a is an RNA binding protein and is localized in nuclear speckles. [PDF]
The Gadd45 proteins play important roles in growth control, maintenance of genomic stability, DNA repair, and apoptosis. Recently, Gadd45 proteins have also been implicated in epigenetic gene regulation by promoting active DNA demethylation.

Excessive inflammation can cause tissue damage and autoimmunity, sometimes accompanied by severe morbidity or mortality. Numerous negative feedback mechanisms exist to prevent unchecked inflammation, but this restraint may come at the cost of suboptimal ...

Protein interactions in Xenopus germ plasm RNP particles [PDF]
Hermes is an RNA-binding protein that we have previously reported to be found in the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) particles of Xenopus germ plasm, where it is associated with various RNAs, including that encoding the germ line determinant Nanos1.
