RNA decay and RNA silencing in plants: competition or collaboration? [PDF]
Initiation of RNA polymerase II transcription signals the beginning of a series of physically and functionally coupled pre-mRNA processing events that transform an RNA transcript into a highly structured, mature ribonucleoprotein complex.

RNA virus evasion of nonsense-mediated decay.
Nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) is a host RNA control pathway that removes aberrant transcripts with long 3' untranslated regions (UTRs) due to premature termination codons (PTCs) that arise through mutation or defective splicing.

Proinflammatory cytokines suppress nonsense-mediated RNA decay to impair regulated transcript isoform processing in pancreatic β cells [PDF]
IntroductionProinflammatory cytokines are implicated in pancreatic ß cell failure in type 1 and type 2 diabetes and are known to stimulate alternative RNA splicing and the expression of nonsense-mediated RNA decay (NMD) components.

Canonical Poly(A) Polymerase Activity Promotes the Decay of a Wide Variety of Mammalian Nuclear RNAs. [PDF]
The human nuclear poly(A)-binding protein PABPN1 has been implicated in the decay of nuclear noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs). In addition, PABPN1 promotes hyperadenylation by stimulating poly(A)-polymerases (PAPα/γ), but this activity has not previously been ...

RNA uridylation and decay in plants [PDF]
RNA uridylation consists of the untemplated addition of uridines at the 3′ extremity of an RNA molecule. RNA uridylation is catalysed by terminal uridylyltransferases (TUTases), which form a subgroup of the terminal nucleotidyltransferase family, to which poly(A) polymerases also belong. The key role of RNA uridylation is to regulate RNA degradation in

Technologies for Targeted RNA Degradation and Induced RNA Decay. [PDF]
The vast majority of the human genome codes for RNA, but RNA-targeting therapeutics account for a small fraction of approved drugs. As such, there is great incentive to improve old and develop new approaches to RNA targeting. For many RNA targeting modalities, just binding is not sufficient to exert a therapeutic effect; thus, targeted RNA degradation ...

RNA decay in processing bodies is indispensable for adipogenesis. [PDF]
AbstractThe RNA decay pathway plays key regulatory roles in cell identities and differentiation processes. Although adipogenesis is transcriptionally and epigenetically regulated and has been thoroughly investigated, how RNA metabolism that contributes to the stability of phenotype-shaping transcriptomes participates in differentiation remains elusive.

DEAD-Box RNA Helicases in Gram-Positive RNA Decay
DEAD-box RNA helicases are important players in eukaryotic and bacterial RNA metabolism. A helicase from Staphylococcus aureus was recently shown to affect RNA decay, most likely via its interaction with the proposed Gram-positive degradosome. Some, but not all, RNAs are stabilized when the helicase CshA is mutated, and among the affected RNAs is the ...

SARS-CoV-2 Nsp1 mediated mRNA degradation requires mRNA interaction with the ribosome
Nsp1 is a SARS-CoV-2 host shutoff factor that both represses cellular translation and promotes host RNA decay. However, it is unclear how these two activities are connected and interact with normal translation processes.

RNA helicases in RNA decay [PDF]
RNA molecules have the tendency to fold into complex structures or to associate with complementary RNAs that exoribonucleases have difficulties processing or degrading. Therefore, degradosomes in bacteria and organelles as well as exosomes in eukaryotes have teamed-up with RNA helicases.
