The crystal structure of Staufen1 in complex with a physiological RNA sheds light on substrate selectivity

open access: yesLife Science Alliance, 2018
Combination of in vitro and in vivo data show that RNA sequence influences Staufen target recognition and that protein–RNA base contacts are required for Staufen function in Drosophila .

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Intron and Small RNA Localization in Mammalian Neurons

open access: yes, 2019
RNA molecules are diverse in form and function. They include messenger RNAs (mRNAs) that are templates for proteins, splice products such as introns that can generate functional noncoding RNAs, and a slew of smaller RNAs such as transfer RNAs (tRNAs ...

A ubiquitous and conserved signal for RNA localization in chordates.

open access: yes, 2002
During oogenesis in Xenopus laevis, several RNAs that localize to the vegetal cortex via one of three temporally defined pathways have been identified.

bicoid RNA localization requires the trans-Golgi network

open access: yesHereditas, 2019
Background The formation of the bicoid (bcd) mRNA gradient is a crucial step for Bcd protein gradient formation in Drosophila. In the past, a microtubule (MT)-based cortical network had been shown to be indispensable for bcd mRNA transport to the ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

FMRP promotes RNA localization to neuronal projections through interactions between its RGG domain and G-quadruplex RNA sequences

open access: yeseLife, 2020
The sorting of RNA molecules to subcellular locations facilitates the activity of spatially restricted processes. We have analyzed subcellular transcriptomes of FMRP-null mouse neuronal cells to identify transcripts that depend on FMRP for efficient ...

Investigating transcription factor dynamics in health and disease using FRAP

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FRAP analysis of GFP‐tagged transcription factors reveals how molecular mobility and target engagement change in response to drug treatment. By combining live‐cell imaging, quantitative model fitting, and statistical analysis, this approach uncovers transcription factor dynamics linked to disease mechanisms, providing a powerful framework for ...

The translational repressor Cup is required for germ plasm assembly and germ cell development in Drosophila.

open access: yes, 2011
RNA localization is a cellular mechanism used to localize proteins to sub-cellular domains and to control protein synthesis regionally. In oocytes, RNA localization has profound implications for development, generating asymmetric protein distributions ...

Sending RNAs into the future: RNA localization and germ cell fate

open access: yes, 2004
RNA localization is a cellular mechanism used to localize proteins to subcellular domains and to control protein synthesis regionally. In oocytes, RNA localization has profound implications for development, setting up local concentrations of regulatory ...
