Reconstitution and analysis of the multienzyme Escherichia coli RNA degradosome. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Mol Biol, 2008
The Escherichia coli RNA degradosome is a multienzyme assembly that functions in transcript turnover and maturation of structured RNA precursors. We have developed a procedure to reconstitute the RNA degradosome from recombinant components using modular ...

Identification and structural investigation of potential novel drug candidates against lethal human pathogen

open access: yesPakistan Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2021
Neisseria meningtidis is responsible for causing meningococcal meningitis along with acute septicaemia in human beings. Functional genomics strategies proved cruciality of certain genes/proteins in Neisseria meningitidis pathogenesis.

Novel endoribonucleases as central players in various pathways of eukaryotic RNA metabolism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
For a long time it has been assumed that the decay of RNA in eukaryotes is mainly carried out by exoribonucleases, which is in contrast to bacteria, where endoribonucleases are well documented to initiate RNA degradation.

The RNase J-Based RNA Degradosome Is Compartmentalized in the Gastric Pathogen Helicobacter pylori

open access: yesmBio, 2020
Posttranscriptional regulation is a major level of gene expression control in any cell. In bacteria, multiprotein machines called RNA degradosomes are central for RNA processing and degradation, and some were reported to be compartmentalized inside these

A multi-dentate, cooperative interaction between endo- and exo-ribonucleases within the bacterial RNA degradosome. [PDF]

open access: yesNucleic Acids Res
In Escherichia coli and numerous other bacteria, two of the principal enzymes mediating messenger RNA decay and RNA processing-RNase E, an endoribonuclease, and polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase), an exoribonuclease-assemble into a multi-enzyme ...

Human FASTK preferentially binds single-stranded and G-rich RNA. [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS J
Although FASTK is known to play a role in mRNA biology, the mechanism through which it recognizes RNA has yet to be unraveled. Here, we used purified human FASTK to characterize its RNA‐binding properties in vitro. We found that FASTK prefers ssRNA oligonucleotides containing guanines with the potential to form G‐quadruplexes and binds robustly to any ...

Localization of components of the RNA-degrading machine in Bacillus subtilis

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2016
In bacteria, the control of mRNA stability is crucial to allow rapid adaptation to changing conditions. In most bacteria, RNA degradation is catalyzed by the RNA degradosome, a protein complex composed of endo- and exoribonucleases, RNA helicases and ...

Analysis of mRNA Decay Intermediates in Bacillus subtilis 3′ Exoribonuclease and RNA Helicase Mutant Strains

open access: yesmBio, 2022
The Bacillus subtilis genome encodes four 3′ exoribonucleases: polynucleotide phosphorylase (PNPase), RNase R, RNase PH, and YhaM. Previous work showed that PNPase, encoded by the pnpA gene, is the major 3′ exonuclease involved in mRNA turnover; in a ...

Towards Understanding Helicase and Chaperone Activities in the RNA Degradosome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The E. coli RNA degradosome is a complex multi-enzyme machine which is central to the post-transcriptional regulation of the cell. Some of its functions include maturing and processing sRNA, rRNA, and tRNA, as well as degrading mRNA.

LEVELNET to visualize, explore, and compare protein–protein interaction networks

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, Volume 23, Issue 17, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Physical interactions between proteins are central to all biological processes. Yet, the current knowledge of who interacts with whom in the cell and in what manner relies on partial, noisy, and highly heterogeneous data. Thus, there is a need for methods comprehensively describing and organizing such data.
