Viruses and the cellular RNA decay machinery. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The ability to control cellular and viral gene expression, either globally or selectively, is central to a successful viral infection, and it is also crucial for the host to respond and eradicate pathogens.

Structural insights into DNA repair by RNase T--an exonuclease processing 3' end of structured DNA in repair pathways.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2014
DNA repair mechanisms are essential for preservation of genome integrity. However, it is not clear how DNA are selected and processed at broken ends by exonucleases during repair pathways.

Inhibition of Murine Cytomegalovirus Infection in Animals by RNase P-Associated External Guide Sequences. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
External guide sequence (EGS) RNAs are associated with ribonuclease P (RNase P), a tRNA processing enzyme, and represent promising agents for gene-targeting applications as they can direct RNase-P-mediated cleavage of a target mRNA.

Bacillus subtilis Mutants with Knockouts of the Genes Encoding Ribonucleases RNase Y and RNase J1 Are Viable, with Major Defects in Cell Morphology, Sporulation, and Competence [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2013
ABSTRACT The genes encoding the ribonucleases RNase J1 and RNase Y have long been considered essential for Bacillus subtilis cell viability, even before there was concrete knowledge of their function as two of the most important enzymes for RNA turnover in this organism.

Endophytic Bacillus spp. as a Prospective Biological Tool for Control of Viral Diseases and Non-vector Leptinotarsa decemlineata Say. in Solanum tuberosum L.

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Viral diseases and their damage causing significant loss to economically important crops have increased by several folds during the last decade. All the conventional approaches are not able to eradicate the viral infection.

Y-RNA and tRNA Cleavage by RNase L Mediates Terminal dsRNA Response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
AbstractDouble-stranded RNA (dsRNA) is a danger signal that triggers endonucleolytic degradation of RNA inside infected and stressed mammalian cells. This mechanism inhibits growth and ultimately removes problematic cells via apoptosis. To elucidate the molecular functions of this program and understand the connection between RNA cleavage and ...

A nitric oxide regulated small RNA controls expression of genes involved in redox homeostasis in Bacillus subtilis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2015
RsaE is the only known trans-acting small regulatory RNA (sRNA) besides the ubiquitous 6S RNA that is conserved between the human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus and the soil-dwelling Firmicute Bacillus subtilis.

RNase HI Is Essential for Survival of Mycobacterium smegmatis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
RNases H are involved in the removal of RNA from RNA/DNA hybrids. Type I RNases H are thought to recognize and cleave the RNA/DNA duplex when at least four ribonucleotides are present.

RNA processing in Bacillus subtilis: identification of targets of the essential RNase Y

open access: yesMolecular Microbiology, 2011
SummaryRNA processing and degradation is initiated by endonucleolytic cleavage of the target RNAs. In many bacteria, this activity is performed by RNase E which is not present in Bacillus subtilis and other Gram‐positive bacteria. Recently, the essential endoribonuclease RNase Y has been discovered in B. subtilis.

Transcriptome-wide analyses of 5'-ends in RNase J mutants of a gram-positive pathogen reveal a role in RNA maturation, regulation and degradation.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
RNA decay and maturation have in recent years been recognised as major regulatory mechanisms in bacteria. In contrast to Escherichia coli, the Firmicute (Gram-positive) bacteria often do not encode the well-studied endonuclease RNase E, but instead rely ...
