Poliovirus-specific primer-dependent RNA polymerase able to copy poly(A) [PDF]
, 1977 A template-dependent RNA polymerase has been isolated from poliovirus-infected cells by assaying for the ability of the enzyme to copy poly(A) complexed to an oligo(U) primer.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Functional Importance of the Hydrophobic Residue 362 in Influenza A PB1 Subunit
Viruses, 2023 PB1, acting as the catalytic subunit of the influenza polymerase, has numerous sequentially and structurally conserved regions. It has been observed that the slight modification of residues in PB1 would greatly affect the polymerase activity and even ...

Template-dependent multiple displacement amplification for profiling human circulating RNA [PDF]
, 2017 Multiple displacement amplification (MDA) is widely used in whole-genome/transcriptome amplification. However, template-independent amplification (TIA) in MDA is a commonly observed phenomenon, particularly when using high concentrations of random ...

6S RNA-Dependent Susceptibility to RNA Polymerase Inhibitors
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 2022 Bacterial small RNAs (sRNAs) contribute to a variety of regulatory mechanisms that modulate a wide range of pathways, including metabolism, virulence, and antibiotic resistance. We investigated the involvement of sRNAs in rifampicin resistance in the opportunistic pathogen Staphylococcus aureus
