Diversity and Versatility in Small RNA-Mediated Regulation in Bacterial Pathogens
Bacterial gene expression is under the control of a large set of molecules acting at multiple levels. In addition to the transcription factors (TFs) already known to be involved in global regulation of gene expression, small regulatory RNAs (sRNAs) are ...

Study of E. coli Hfq's RNA annealing acceleration and duplex destabilization activities using substrates with different GC-contents [PDF]
Folding of RNA molecules into their functional three-dimensional structures is often supported by RNA chaperones, some of which can catalyse the two elementary reactions helix disruption and helix formation.

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Aims: Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is an enzyme that synthesizes prostaglandins from arachidonic acid. Previous reports have indicated that COX-2 is constitutively expressed in osteogenic cells instead of being expressed only after pathogenic induction, and

Large Differences in Small RNA Composition Between Human Biofluids. [PDF]
Extracellular microRNAs (miRNAs) and other small RNAs are implicated in cellular communication and may be useful as disease biomarkers. We systematically compared small RNAs in 12 human biofluid types using RNA sequencing (RNA-seq).

Trans-Acting RNA–RNA Interactions in Segmented RNA Viruses [PDF]
RNA viruses represent a large and important group of pathogens that infect a broad range of hosts. Segmented RNA viruses are a subclass of this group that encode their genomes in two or more molecules and package all of their RNA segments in a single virus particle.

The Caenorhabditis elegans DPF‐3 and human DPP4 have tripeptidyl peptidase activity
The dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) family comprises serine proteases classically defined by their ability to remove dipeptides from the N‐termini of substrates, a feature that gave the family its name. Here, we report the discovery of a previously unrecognized tripeptidyl peptidase activity in DPPIV family members from two different species.

The Role of ncRNAs in Parasitic Plant Infection and Resistance Management in Tomato Breeding
Tomato is one of the most important agricultural crops in the World and many biotic stresses exist affecting its production. Parasitic weeds in particular are important in tomato production, causing billions of dollars in losses.

Computational identification and analysis of noncoding RNAs - Unearthing the buried treasures in the genome [PDF]
The central dogma of molecular biology states that the genetic information flows from DNA to RNA to protein. This dogma has exerted a substantial influence on our understanding of the genetic activities in the cells.
