Intracellular RNA cleavage by the hairpin ribozyme [PDF]
Studies involving ribozyme-directed inactivation of targeted RNA molecules have met with mixed success, making clear the importance of methods to measure and optimize ribozyme activity within cells. The interpretation of biochemical assays for determining ribozyme activity in the cellular environment have been complicated by recent results indicating ...

Probing RNA Structure by Lead Cleavage [PDF]
AbstractLead cleavage causes a transesterification reaction that breaks the 5′,3′‐phosphodiester backbone of RNA, leaving a 2′,3′‐cyclic phosphate and a 5′‐hydroxyl. Since the efficiency of the reaction at the 2′‐hydroxyl is related to steric and chemical constraints on particular 2′‐hydroxyls embedded in the RNA, this reaction can be used to examine ...

Distinct roles for Argonaute proteins in small RNA-directed RNA cleavage pathways.
In mammalian cells, both microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are thought to be loaded into the same RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), where they guide mRNA degradation or translation silencing depending on the complementarity of ...

Cleavage of Influenza RNA Using Artificial RNA‐cleaving Enzyme
Previously, we reported that our designed artificial DNA‐cleaving enzyme which comprises our artificial DNA‐binding protein and a DNA‐cleaving domain inhibited DNA replication of human papilloma virus (HPV) in mammalian cells by cleaving its target HPV ori plasmid sequence‐specifically.

This perspective highlights emerging insights into how the circadian transcription factor CLOCK:BMAL1 regulates chromatin architecture, cooperates with other transcription factors, and coordinates enhancer dynamics. We propose an updated framework for how circadian transcription factors operate within dynamic and multifactorial chromatin landscapes ...

The Cmr complex is the multisubunit effector complex of the type III-B clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas immune system. The Cmr complex recognizes a target RNA through base pairing with the integral CRISPR RNA (crRNA)

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

RNA and DNA Targeting by a Reconstituted Thermus thermophilus Type III-A CRISPR-Cas System. [PDF]
CRISPR-Cas (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats-CRISPR-associated) systems are RNA-guided adaptive immunity pathways used by bacteria and archaea to defend against phages and plasmids.

In metazoans, cleavage by the endoribonuclease SMG6 is often the first degradative event in non-sense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD). However, the exact sites of SMG6 cleavage have yet to be determined for any endogenous targets, and most evidence as to the ...
