The translational repressors Nanos and Pumilio have divergent effects on presynaptic terminal growth and postsynaptic glutamate receptor subunit composition [PDF]

, 2009
Pumilio (Pum) is a translational repressor that binds selectively to target mRNAs and recruits Nanos (Nos) as a corepressor. In the larval neuromuscular system, Pum represses expression of the translation factor eIF-4E and the glutamate receptor subunit ...

RNAi and retroviruses: are they in RISC?

BioMolecular Concepts, 2013
AbstractRNA interference (RNAi) is a potent cellular system against viruses in various organisms. Although common traits are observed in plants, insects, and nematodes, the situation observed in mammals appears more complex. In mammalian somatic cells, RNAi is implicated in endonucleolytic cleavage mediated by artificially delivered small interfering ...

A nuclease specific to lepidopteran insects suppresses RNAi

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2018
More than 70% of all agricultural pests are insects in the order Lepidoptera, which, unlike other related insect orders, are not very sensitive to RNAi, limiting genetic studies of this insect group.

A Viral RNA Silencing Suppressor Modulates Reactive Oxygen Species Levels to Induce the Autophagic Degradation of Dicer‐Like and Argonaute‐Like Proteins

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Understanding the virus‐host arms race has been a fascinating topic in virology; contributing significantly to the development of treatments and control strategies for viral diseases. CHV1 employs a sophisticated counter‐defense mechanism in its fungal host by utilizing a viral silencing suppressor to inhibit fungal FMN reductase; thereby modulating ...

Florigen and Florigen‐Like Genes Regulate Temperature‐Responsive Flowering in Tomato

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers that FLOWERING LOCUS T‐Like 2 (FTL2) and SINGLE‐FLOWER TRUSS (SFT) antagonistically regulate temperature‐responsive flowering in the tomato shoot apical meristem. High temperature induces floral repressor FTL2, which directly inhibits SFT to delay short‐day floral transition, while SFT reciprocally inhibits FTL2 to promote flowering.

Viral Systemic Movement Is Enhanced by Alteration of a Structural Phloem Protein by the Insect Vector

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Aphids release salivary protein GLD into plants, which induces ROS in the phloem. This leads to the intermolecular disulfide bonds formation among SEO proteins, promoting their transition from the dispersed state to the aggregated state. SEO can interact with CMV CP.

Phyllotreta striolata (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae): Arginine kinase cloning and RNAi-based pest control

European Journal of Entomology, 2008
Insect pests cause billions of dollars in crop losses and there is the ever-present threat of insecticide resistance, pesticide pollution of food and environmental damage. New ways of controlling insect pests are urgently needed.

Loss of Hepatic Angiotensinogen Attenuates Diastolic Dysfunction in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Increased hepatic angiotensinogen (AGT) abundance leads to cardiac diastolic dysfunction via the AngII‐independent pathway. Liver‐derived AGT is internalized by LRP2 in cardiac endothelial cells, subsequently contributing to myocardial diastolic dysfunction by suppressing microvascular angiogenesis via inhibiting the GATA2/Pim3 pathway.

CDH1 Orchestrates Anabolic Events to Promote Cell Cycle Initiation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cell proliferation requires the integration of cell cycle and anabolic signals. G1‐phase regulator CDH1 coordinates anabolism through the CDH1‐VHL‐AARS2/HIF1α axis, while CDH1‐accumulated R5P is sensed by TKTL1 to facilitate CDH1 degradation and cell cycle initiation, constituting a CDH1‐centered regulatory circuit.

Double-stranded RNA binding protein, Staufen, is required for the initiation of RNAi in coleopteran insects

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2018
Significance The RNA interference (RNAi) discovered in nematodes has contributed to major advances in basic and applied sciences. RNAi-based methods are being developed for controlling pests and disease vectors.
