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).

Chloroplast RNA-binding proteins [PDF]
Chloroplast gene expression is regulated by nucleus-encoded factors, which mainly act at the post-transcriptional level. Plastid RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) represent good candidates for mediating these functions. The picture emerging from recent analyses is that of a great number of differentially regulated RBPs, which are organized in distinct ...

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.

Mechanism of RNA recognition by a Musashi RNA-binding protein [PDF]
Abstract The Musashi RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) regulate translation of target mRNAs and maintenance of cell stemness and tumorigenesis. Musashi-1 (MSI1), long considered as an intestinal and neural stem cell marker, has been more recently found to be overexpressed in many cancers. It has served as an important drug target for treating

Beyond RNA-binding domains: determinants of protein–RNA binding
RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are composed of RNA-binding domains (RBDs) often linked via intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs). Structural and biochemical analyses have shown that disordered linkers contribute to RNA binding by orienting the adjacent RBDs and also characterized certain disordered repeats that directly contact the RNA.

Alternative polyadenylation and RNA-binding proteins [PDF]
Our understanding of the extent of microRNA-based gene regulation has expanded in an impressive pace over the past decade. Now, we are beginning to better appreciate the role of 3′-UTR (untranslated region) cis-elements which harbor not only microRNA but also RNA-binding protein (RBP) binding sites that have significant effect on the stability and ...

ADP-ribosylation has long been recognised as a key regulator of essential signalling pathways, including the DNA damage response. However, only recent and ongoing technological advances are beginning to make it possible to investigate its distinct forms ...

Natural Killer Cells in Paediatric Soft Tissue Sarcomas: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Paediatric soft tissue sarcomas (pSTS) are a rare and heterogeneous group of malignant tumours arising in tissues of mesenchymal origin. The role of natural killer (NK) cells in pSTS remains poorly understood, with evidence fragmented across small preclinical studies and early‐phase clinical trials.

RNA-binding proteins in bone pathophysiology
Bone remodelling is a highly regulated process that maintains mineral homeostasis and preserves bone integrity. During this process, intricate communication among all bone cells is required.
