Impact of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay on the global expression profile of budding yeast. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2006
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) is a eukaryotic mechanism of RNA surveillance that selectively eliminates aberrant transcripts coding for potentially deleterious proteins. NMD also functions in the normal repertoire of gene expression.

Consequences for Pancreatic β-Cell Identity and Function of Unregulated Transcript Processing

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2021
Mounting evidence suggests a role for alternative splicing (AS) of transcripts in the normal physiology and pathophysiology of the pancreatic β-cell. In the apparent absence of RNA repair systems, RNA decay pathways are likely to play an important role ...

Interaction Between LncRNA and UPF1 in Tumors

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs) can bind to other proteins or RNAs to regulate gene expression, and its role in tumors has been extensively studied. A common RNA binding protein, UPF1, is also a key factor in a variety of RNA decay pathways.

Characterizing ZC3H18, a Multi-domain Protein at the Interface of RNA Production and Destruction Decisions

open access: yesCell Reports, 2018
Summary: Nuclear RNA metabolism is influenced by protein complexes connecting to both RNA-productive and -destructive pathways. The ZC3H18 protein binds the cap-binding complex (CBC), universally present on capped RNAs, while also associating with the ...

A hepatitis C virus cis-acting replication element forms a long-range RNA-RNA interaction with upstream RNA sequences in NS5B [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The genome of hepatitis C virus (HCV) contains cis-acting replication elements (CREs) comprised of RNA stem-loop structures located in both the 5' and 3' non-coding regions (NCR), and in the NS5B coding sequence.

RNA virus evasion of nonsense-mediated decay.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2018
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.

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus ORF57 protein binds and protects a nuclear noncoding RNA from cellular RNA decay pathways. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2010
The control of RNA stability is a key determinant in cellular gene expression. The stability of any transcript is modulated through the activity of cis- or trans-acting regulatory factors as well as cellular quality control systems that ensure the ...

Translophagy—A potential link between autophagy impairment and translational errors

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neurodegenerative diseases are characterised by the accumulation of abnormal proteins and protein aggregates, but their origin often remains unknown. We propose that selective autophagy removes damaged protein‐making machinery, preventing errors during protein synthesis.
