Small molecule selected to disrupt oncogenic protein EWS-FLI1 interaction with RNA Helicase A inhibits Ewing's Sarcoma

open access: yesNature Network Boston, 2009
Many sarcomas and leukemias carry nonrandom chromosomal translocations encoding tumor-specific mutant fusion transcription factors that are essential to their molecular pathogenesis. Ewing's sarcoma family tumors (ESFTs) contain a characteristic t(11;22)

Conserved motifs in the flavivirus NS3 RNA helicase enzyme

open access: yesWiley Interdisciplinary Reviews - RNA, 2021
Flaviviruses are a major health concern because over half of the world population is at risk of infection and there are very few antiviral therapeutics to treat diseases resulting from infection.

DHX36 enhances RIG-I signaling by facilitating PKR-mediated antiviral stress granule formation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2014
RIG-I is a DExD/H-box RNA helicase and functions as a critical cytoplasmic sensor for RNA viruses to initiate antiviral interferon (IFN) responses. Here we demonstrate that another DExD/H-box RNA helicase DHX36 is a key molecule for RIG-I signaling by ...

A mutation in the coronavirus nsp13-helicase impairs enzymatic activity and confers partial remdesivir resistance

open access: yesmBio, 2023
Coronaviruses (CoVs) encode nonstructural proteins 1–16 (nsps 1–16) which form replicase complexes that mediate viral RNA synthesis. Remdesivir (RDV) is an adenosine nucleoside analog antiviral that inhibits CoV RNA synthesis.

Identification and functional analysis of novel phosphorylation sites in the RNA surveillance protein Upf1. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
One third of inherited genetic diseases are caused by mRNAs harboring premature termination codons as a result of nonsense mutations. These aberrant mRNAs are degraded by the Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay (NMD) pathway.

Roles of the linker region of RNA helicase A in HIV-1 RNA metabolism. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
RNA helicase A (RHA) promotes multiple steps in HIV-1 production including transcription and translation of viral RNA, annealing of primer tRNA(Lys3) to viral RNA, and elevating the ratio of unspliced to spliced viral RNA.

m6A in mRNA coding regions promotes translation via the RNA helicase-containing YTHDC2

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Dynamic mRNA modification in the form of N6-methyladenosine (m6A) adds considerable richness and sophistication to gene regulation. The m6A mark is asymmetrically distributed along mature mRNAs, with approximately 35% of m6A residues located within the ...

The RNA helicase Dhx15 mediates Wnt-induced antimicrobial protein expression in Paneth cells

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2021
Significance RNA helicases play critical roles in multiple biological processes. However, little in vivo data are available because of the lethality of mice completely deficient in RNA helicases.

The DEAD-Box RNA Helicase DDX3 Interacts with NF-κB Subunit p65 and Suppresses p65-Mediated Transcription. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
RNA helicase family members exhibit diverse cellular functions, including in transcription, pre-mRNA processing, RNA decay, ribosome biogenesis, RNA export and translation.

Structural basis of TFIIH activation for nucleotide excision repair. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Nucleotide excision repair (NER) is the major DNA repair pathway that removes UV-induced and bulky DNA lesions. There is currently no structure of NER intermediates, which form around the large multisubunit transcription factor IIH (TFIIH).
