An mRNA-mRNA Interaction Couples Expression of a Virulence Factor and Its Chaperone in Listeria monocytogenes

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Bacterial pathogens often employ RNA regulatory elements located in the 5′ untranslated regions (UTRs) to control gene expression. Using a comparative structural analysis, we examine the structure of 5′ UTRs at a global scale in the pathogenic ...

SRA inhibition improves antitumor potency of antigen-targeted chaperone vaccine

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
We have previously demonstrated that scavenger receptor A (SRA) acts as an immunosuppressive regulator of dendritic cell (DC) function in activating antitumor T cells.

Proteins That Chaperone RNA Regulation [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2018
ABSTRACT RNA-binding proteins chaperone the biological functions of noncoding RNA by reducing RNA misfolding, improving matchmaking between regulatory RNA and targets, and exerting quality control over RNP biogenesis. Recent studies of Escherichia coli CspA, HIV NCp, and E. coli Hfq

An RNA Thermometer Activity of the West Nile Virus Genomic 3′-Terminal Stem-Loop Element Modulates Viral Replication Efficiency during Host Switching

open access: yesViruses, 2020
The 3′-terminal stem-loop (3′SL) of the RNA genome of the flavivirus West Nile (WNV) harbors, in its stem, one of the sequence elements that are required for genome cyclization.

Chaperoning 5S RNA assembly [PDF]

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2015
In eukaryotes, three of the four ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs)—the 5.8S, 18S, and 25S/28S rRNAs—are processed from a single pre-rRNA transcript and assembled into ribosomes. The fourth rRNA, the 5S rRNA, is transcribed by RNA polymerase III and is assembled into the 5S ribonucleoprotein particle (RNP), containing ribosomal proteins Rpl5/uL18 and Rpl11/uL5 ...

Protein solubility and folding enhancement by interaction with RNA. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2008
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

Structural basis for recognition of transcriptional terminator structures by ProQ/FinO domain RNA chaperones

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
In this work, the authors determine the crystal structure of a ProQ/FinO RNA chaperone bound to its RNA target. This provides insight into how this family of bacterial proteins recognize transcriptional terminator structures.

The yeast histone chaperone hif1p functions with RNA in nucleosome assembly. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Hif1p is an H3/H4-specific histone chaperone that associates with the nuclear form of the Hat1p/Hat2p complex (NuB4 complex) in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. While not capable of depositing histones onto DNA on its own, Hif1p can act in conjunction

An improved method for surface immobilisation of RNA: application to small Non-Coding RNA - mRNA pairing [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Characterisation of RNA and its intermolecular interactions is increasing in importance as the inventory of known RNA functions continues to expand. RNA-RNA interactions are central to post-transcriptional gene regulation mechanisms in bacteria, and the ...
