Mitochondrial RNA granules: Compartmentalizing mitochondrial gene expression. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Cell Biol, 2016
In mitochondria, DNA replication, gene expression, and RNA degradation machineries coexist within a common nondelimited space, raising the question of how functional compartmentalization of gene expression is achieved. Here, we discuss the recently characterized “mitochondrial RNA granules,” mitochondrial subdomains with an emerging role in the ...

Cytoplasmic RNA Granules in Somatic Maintenance [PDF]

open access: yesGerontology, 2018
Cytoplasmic RNA granules represent subcellular compartments that are enriched in protein-bound RNA species. RNA granules are produced by evolutionary divergent eukaryotes, including yeast, mammals, and plants. The functions of cytoplasmic RNA granules differ widely. They are dictated by the cell type and physiological state, which in turn is determined

Multiple Poliovirus Proteins Repress Cytoplasmic RNA Granules. [PDF]

open access: yesViruses, 2015
We have previously shown that poliovirus (PV) infection induces stress granule (SG) formation early in infection and then inhibits the formation of SG and disperses processing bodies (PBs) by the mid-phase of infection. Loss of SG was linked to cleavage of G3BP1 by viral 3C proteinase (3Cpro), however dispersal of PBs was not strongly linked to ...

Human mitochondrial degradosome prevents harmful mitochondrial R loops and mitochondrial genome instability [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
R loops are nucleic acid structures comprising an DNA-RNA hybrid and a displaced single-stranded DNA. These structures may occur transiently during transcription, playing essential biological functions. However, persistent R loops may become pathological

Characterization of Fragile X Mental Retardation Protein granules formation and dynamics in Drosophila

open access: yesBiology Open, 2012
Summary FMRP is an evolutionarily conserved protein that is highly expressed in neurons and its deficiency causes fragile X mental retardation syndrome.

The Role of Cytoplasmic mRNA Cap-Binding Protein Complexes in Trypanosoma brucei and Other Trypanosomatids. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Trypanosomatid protozoa are unusual eukaryotes that are well known for having unusual ways of controlling their gene expression. The lack of a refined mode of transcriptional control in these organisms is compensated by several post-transcriptional ...

Intracellular and intercellular transport of RNA organelles in CXG repeat disorders: The strength of weak ties

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
RNA is a vital biomolecule, the function of which is tightly spatiotemporally regulated. RNA organelles are biological structures that either membrane-less or surrounded by membrane.

To translate, or not to translate: viral and host mRNA regulation by interferon-stimulated genes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Type I interferon (IFN) is one of the first lines of cellular defense against viral pathogens. As a result of IFN signaling, a wide array of IFN-stimulated gene (ISG) products is upregulated to target different stages of the viral life cycle.

Neuronal RNA Granules: Movers and Makers [PDF]

open access: yesNeuron, 2006
RNA localization contributes to cell polarity and synaptic plasticity. Evidence will be discussed that RNA transport and local translation in neurons may be more intimately linked than originally thought. Second, neuronal RNA granules, originally defined as intermediates involved in mRNA transport, are much more diverse in their composition and ...

Germ Granules Allow Transmission of Small RNA-Based Parental Responses in the “Germ Plasm”

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: In the recent decade small RNA-based inheritance has been implicated in a variety of transmitted physiological responses to the environment. In Caenorhabditis elegans, heritable small RNAs rely on RNA-dependent RNA polymerases, RNA-processing ...
