Attenuated Codon Optimality Contributes to Neural-Specific mRNA Decay in Drosophila. [PDF]

, 2018
Tissue-specific mRNA stability is important for cell fate and physiology, but the mechanisms involved are not fully understood. We found that zygotic mRNA stability in Drosophila correlates with codon content: optimal codons are enriched in stable ...

Deep sequencing of pre-translational mRNPs reveals hidden flux through evolutionarily conserved alternative splicing nonsense-mediated decay pathways

Genome Biology, 2021
Background Alternative splicing, which generates multiple mRNA isoforms from single genes, is crucial for the regulation of eukaryotic gene expression.

RNA surveillance by uridylation-dependent RNA decay inSchizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]

Nucleic Acids Research, 2019
Uridylation-dependent RNA decay is a widespread eukaryotic pathway modulating RNA homeostasis. Terminal uridylyltransferases (Tutases) add untemplated uridyl residues to RNA 3'-ends, marking them for degradation by the U-specific exonuclease Dis3L2. In Schizosaccharomyces pombe, Cid1 uridylates a variety of RNAs.

Characterizing RNA stability genome-wide through combined analysis of PRO-seq and RNA-seq data

BMC Biology, 2021
Background The concentrations of distinct types of RNA in cells result from a dynamic equilibrium between RNA synthesis and decay. Despite the critical importance of RNA decay rates, current approaches for measuring them are generally labor-intensive ...

RNA Degradation in Pluripotent Stem Cells: Mechanisms, Crosstalk, and Fate Regulation

Cells
Pluripotent stem cells (PSCs) exhibit remarkable self-renewal capacity and differentiation potential, necessitating tight regulation of gene expression at both transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels.

An RNA decay factor wears a new coat: UPF3B modulates translation termination [version 1; referees: 3 approved]

F1000Research, 2017
Nonsense-mediated RNA decay (NMD) is a highly conserved and selective RNA turnover pathway that has been subject to intense scrutiny. NMD identifies and degrades subsets of normal RNAs, as well as abnormal mRNAs containing premature termination codons. A

A novel class of microRNA-recognition elements that function only within open reading frames. [PDF]

, 2018
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are well known to target 3' untranslated regions (3' UTRs) in mRNAs, thereby silencing gene expression at the post-transcriptional level.

Identification of a novel human E-Cadherin splice variant andassessment of its effects upon EMT-related events [PDF]

, 2018
Epithelial Cadherin (E-cadherin) is involved in calcium-dependent cell-cell adhesion and signal transduction. The E-cadherin decrease/loss is a hallmark of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT), a key event in tumor progression.

De novo STXBP1 Mutations in Two Patients With Developmental Delay With or Without Epileptic Seizures

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Objectives: Mutations in the STXBP1 gene have been associated with epileptic encephalopathy. Previous studies from in vitro neuroblastoma 2A cells showed that haploinsufficiency of STXBP1 is the mechanism for epileptic encephalopathy.
