In vitro RNA Cleavage Assays to Characterize IRE1-dependent RNA Decay [PDF]

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2019
The kinase/RNase IRE1 is a key effector of the cellular response to endoplasmic reticulum stress. The RNase activity of IRE1 can be measured in cells or in the test tube.

Critical factors for precise and efficient RNA cleavage by RNase Y in Staphylococcus aureus. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics
Cellular processes require precise and specific gene regulation, in which continuous mRNA degradation is a major element. The mRNA degradation mechanisms should be able to degrade a wide range of different RNA substrates with high efficiency, but should ...

RNase P-Mediated Sequence-Specific Cleavage of RNA by Engineered External Guide Sequences

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2015
The RNA cleavage activity of RNase P can be employed to decrease the levels of specific RNAs and to study their function or even to eradicate pathogens. Two different technologies have been developed to use RNase P as a tool for RNA knockdown.

RNA modifications can affect RNase H1-mediated PS-ASO activity

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2022
Phosphorothioate modified antisense oligonucleotides (PS-ASOs) can reduce gene expression through hybridization to target RNAs and subsequent cleavage by RNase H1.

Novel endoribonucleases as central players in various pathways of eukaryotic RNA metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
For a long time it has been assumed that the decay of RNA in eukaryotes is mainly carried out by exoribonucleases, which is in contrast to bacteria, where endoribonucleases are well documented to initiate RNA degradation.

SARS coronavirus nsp1 protein induces template-dependent endonucleolytic cleavage of mRNAs: viral mRNAs are resistant to nsp1-induced RNA cleavage. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2011
SARS coronavirus (SCoV) nonstructural protein (nsp) 1, a potent inhibitor of host gene expression, possesses a unique mode of action: it binds to 40S ribosomes to inactivate their translation functions and induces host mRNA degradation.

Optimized protocols for RNA-induced silencing complex assembly and cleavage in cultured Drosophila cells

open access: yesSTAR Protocols, 2022
Summary: Here, we provide an optimized RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC) assembly and cleavage protocol in vitro without using radiolabeled RNA. The protocol is useful to characterize the biochemical properties of the RISC. We describe the preparation

Characterization of a Programmable Argonaute Nuclease from the Mesophilic Bacterium Rummeliibacillus suwonensis

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2022
Prokaryotic Argonautes (pAgos) from mesophilic bacteria are attracting increasing attention for their genome editing potential. So far, it has been reported that KmAgo from Kurthia massiliensis can utilize DNA and RNA guide of any sequence to effectively
