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 ...

Guardian of Genetic Messenger-RNA-Binding Proteins
RNA in cells is always associated with RNA-binding proteins that regulate all aspects of RNA metabolism including RNA splicing, export from the nucleus, RNA localization, mRNA turn-over as well as translation. Given their diverse functions, cells express

RNA-binding proteins in bacteria [PDF]
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are central to most if not all cellular processes, dictating the fate of virtually all RNA molecules in the cell. Starting with pioneering work on ribosomal proteins, studies of bacterial RBPs have paved the way for molecular studies of RNA-protein interactions.

Protein solubility and folding enhancement by interaction with RNA. [PDF]
While basic mechanisms of several major molecular chaperones are well understood, this machinery has been known to be involved in folding of only limited number of proteins inside the cells. Here, we report a chaperone type of protein folding facilitated

RNA‐binding properties of hnRNP proteins [PDF]
The RNA‐binding properties of the hnRNP monoparticle proteins were examined using a renaturing blotting procedure. All ‘core’ proteins are able to bind single‐stranded nucleic acids, probably not sequence‐specific. The core proteins C1 and, in one case A2 and B2, are able to bind nucleic acids which are double‐stranded or which show a high degree of ...

Pat1 RNA‐binding proteins: Multitasking shuttling proteins [PDF]
AbstractPost‐transcriptional regulation of gene expression is largely achieved at the level of splicing in the nucleus, and translation and mRNA decay in the cytosol. While the regulation may be global, through the direct inhibition of central factors, such as the spliceosome, translation initiation factors and mRNA decay enzymes, in many instances ...

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.

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).

Single molecule probing of disordered RNA binding proteins
Summary: Liquid-liquid phase separation of intrinsically disordered proteins is known to underlie diverse pathologies such as neurodegeneration, cancer, and aging.

RNA-Binding Proteins: Splicing Factors and Disease
Pre-mRNA splicing is mediated by interactions of the Core Spliceosome and an array of accessory RNA binding proteins with cis-sequence elements. Splicing is a major regulatory component in higher eukaryotes.
