Possible role of human ribonuclease dicer in the regulation of R loops
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.R loops play an important role in regulating key cellular processes such as replication, transcription, centromere stabilization, or control of telomere length. However, the unscheduled accumulation of R loops can cause many diseases, including cancer, and neurodegenerative or inflammatory disorders. Interestingly, accumulating data indicate a possible

Cofactor-mediated conformational control in the bifunctional kinase/RNase Ire1
BMC Biology, 2011 Background Ire1 is a signal transduction protein in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane that serves to adjust the protein-folding capacity of the ER according to the needs of the cell.

Discovery of a mini-RNase P in archaea [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010 The remarkable and unexpected finding of an abbreviated version of archaeal RNase P RNA reported by Lai et al. in PNAS (1) raises the proverbial question: Which came first, the chicken or the egg? However, given nature's tinkering ability, this finding hints at the possibility of independent evolution of domains in biological catalysts. Lai et al.

Use of RNA secondary structure for evolutionary relationships : investigating RNase P and RNase MRP : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Genetics at Massey University, New Zealand [PDF]
, 1998 Bioinformatics is applied here to examine whether RNA secondary structure data can reflect distant evolutionary relationships. This is important when there is little confidence in sequence data such as when looking at the evolution of RNase MRP (MRP ...

Gut alterations in a chronic kidney disease rat model with diet‐induced vascular calcification
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients often suffer from intestinal and/or mineral and bone disorders. Using a rat model, we showed that uremic vascular calcification is associated with gut barrier alterations (decreased gut mucus production and Nlrp6 gene expression, increased gut inflammation), and plasma retention of gut‐origin uremic toxins (indoxyl

A Protein-Only RNase P in Human Mitochondria [PDF]
Cell, 2008 In bacteria, archaea, and the eukaryote nucleus, the endonuclease ribonuclease P (RNase P) is composed of a catalytic RNA that is assisted by protein subunits. Holzmann et al. (2008) now provide evidence that the human mitochondrial RNase P is an entirely protein-based enzyme.

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Stem cell‐based embryo models (SCBEMs) are valuable to study early developmental milestones. Matrigel, a basement membrane matrix, is a critical substrate used in various SCBEM protocols, but its role in driving stem cell lineage commitment is not clearly defined.

Inhibition of Bacterial RNase P RNA by Phenothiazine Derivatives
Biomolecules, 2016 There is a need to identify novel scaffolds and targets to develop new antibiotics. Methylene blue is a phenothiazine derivative, and it has been shown to possess anti-malarial and anti-trypanosomal activities.

Characterization of one new non-S-RNase of Armeniaca cathayana
Czech Journal of Genetics and Plant Breeding, 2019 Armeniaca cathayana, a new species described in 2010, belongs to gametophytic self-incompatibility (GSI) system which is under S-allele control. One new non-S-ribonuclease (non-S-RNase) was found in A. cathayana through comparing its nucleotide and amino
