RNA decay is an antiviral defense in plants that is counteracted by viral RNA silencing suppressors. [PDF]
PLoS Pathogens, 2018 Exonuclease-mediated RNA decay in plants is known to be involved primarily in endogenous RNA degradation, and several RNA decay components have been suggested to attenuate RNA silencing possibly through competing for RNA substrates.

A Method for Rapid Inducible RNA Decay. [PDF]
Methods Mol BiolModulating RNA decay is a powerful tool to investigate RNA degradation dynamics. Here, we describe a protocol to inducibly recruit protein factors to regulate target RNA metabolism, called Rapid Inducible Decay of RNA (RIDR). RIDR induces fast and synchronous decay of target mRNAs within minutes and enables direct visualization of mRNA decay dynamics ...

RNA decay, evolution, and the testis [PDF]
RNA Biology, 2017 NMD is a highly conserved pathway that degrades specific subsets of RNAs. There is increasing evidence for roles of NMD in development. In this commentary, we focus on spermatogenesis, a process dramatically impeded upon loss or disruption of NMD. NMD requires strict regulation for normal spermatogenesis, as loss of a newly discovered NMD repressor ...

The human nuclear poly(a)-binding protein promotes RNA hyperadenylation and decay. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2013 Control of nuclear RNA stability is essential for proper gene expression, but the mechanisms governing RNA degradation in mammalian nuclei are poorly defined.

Extensive reshaping of bacterial operons by programmed mRNA decay. [PDF]
PLoS Genetics, 2018 Bacterial operons synchronize the expression of multiple genes by placing them under the control of a shared promoter. It was previously shown that polycistronic transcripts can undergo differential RNA decay, leaving some genes within the polycistron ...

Decay of enveloped SARS-CoV-2 and non-enveloped PMMoV RNA in raw sewage from university dormitories
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023 IntroductionAlthough severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA has been frequently detected in sewage from many university dormitories to inform public health decisions during the COVID-19 pandemic, a clear understanding of SARS ...

The G3BP1-UPF1-Associated Long Non-Coding RNA CALA Regulates RNA Turnover in the Cytoplasm
Non-Coding RNA, 2022 Besides transcription, RNA decay accounts for a large proportion of regulated gene expression and is paramount for cellular functions. Classical RNA surveillance pathways, like nonsense-mediated decay (NMD), are also implicated in the turnover of non ...

Regulated Inositol‐Requiring Protein 1‐Dependent Decay as a Mechanism of Corin RNA and Protein Deficiency in Advanced Human Systolic Heart Failure [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: The compensatory actions of the endogenous natriuretic peptide system require adequate processing of natriuretic peptide pro‐hormones into biologically active, carboxyl‐terminal fragments.

Diverse Strategies Used by Picornaviruses to Escape Host RNA Decay Pathways
Viruses, 2016 To successfully replicate, viruses protect their genomic material from degradation by the host cell. RNA viruses must contend with numerous destabilizing host cell processes including mRNA decay pathways and viral RNA (vRNA) degradation resulting from ...
