Ribosomal protein L7a binds RNA through two distinct RNA-binding domains [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 2004
The human ribosomal protein L7a is a component of the major ribosomal subunit. We previously identified three nuclear-localization-competent domains within L7a, and demonstrated that the domain defined by aa (amino acids) 52–100 is necessary, although not sufficient, to target the L7a protein to the nucleoli.

Comprehensive landscape of the functions and prognostic value of RNA binding proteins in uterine corpus endometrial carcinoma

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Background: The dysregulation of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) is involved in tumorigenesis and progression. However, information on the overall function of RNA binding proteins in Uterine Corpus Endometrial Carcinoma (UCEC) remains to be studied.

RNA-binding proteins that inhibit RNA virus infection [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2007
Arrays of >5,000 Saccharomyces cerevisiae proteins were screened to identify proteins that can preferentially bind a small RNA hairpin that contains a clamped adenine motif (CAM). A CAM is required for the replication of Brome Mosaic Virus (BMV), a plant-infecting RNA virus that can replicate in S ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Functional Advantages of Conserved Intrinsic Disorder in RNA-Binding Proteins. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2015
Proteins form large macromolecular assemblies with RNA that govern essential molecular processes. RNA-binding proteins have often been associated with conformational flexibility, yet the extent and functional implications of their intrinsic disorder have

Identification of Intrinsic RNA Binding Specificity of Purified Proteins by in vitro RNA Immunoprecipitation (vitRIP)

Bio-Protocol, 2021
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

GraphProt: modeling binding preferences of RNA-binding proteins [PDF]

Genome Biology, 2014
AbstractWe present GraphProt, a computational framework for learning sequence- and structure-binding preferences of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) from high-throughput experimental data. We benchmark GraphProt, demonstrating that the modeled binding preferences conform to the literature, and showcase the biological relevance and two applications of ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

beRBP: binding estimation for human RNA-binding proteins [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Research, 2018
Abstract Identifying binding targets of RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) can greatly facilitate our understanding of their functional mechanisms. Most computational methods employ machine learning to train classifiers on either RBP-specific targets or pooled RBP–RNA interactions.
