Roles of the HEAT repeat proteins Utp10 and Utp20 in 40S ribosome maturation [PDF]

, 2007
A family of HEAT-repeat containing ribosome synthesis factors was previously identified in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. We report the detailed characterization of two of these factors, Utp10 and Utp20, which were initially identified as components of the ...

From energy provision to protein synthesis: Tunnelling nanotubes as mediators of intercellular metabolic cooperation in cancer

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The cytoskeleton‐mediated transport of mitochondria via tunnelling nanotubes restores respiration, increases ATP production, rescues cells from apoptosis, activates the AKT/mTOR signalling pathway, promotes cell migration and invasiveness, contributes to cancer progression and treatment resistance.

Morphological and molecular description of Blastocrithidia cyrtomeni sp. nov. (Kinetoplastea: Trypanosomatidae) associated with Cyrtomenus bergi Froeschner (Hemiptera: Cydnidae) from Colombia

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2011
A new trypanosomatid species, Blastocrithidia cyrtomeni, is herein described using morphological and molecular data. It was found parasitising the alimentary tract of the insect host Cyrtomenus bergi, a polyphagous pest. The morphology of B.

Comparative analysis of pyrosequencing and a phylogenetic microarray for exploring microbial community structures in the human distal intestine [PDF]

, 2009
BACKGROUND: Variations in the composition of the human intestinal microbiota are linked to diverse health conditions. High-throughput molecular technologies have recently elucidated microbial community structure at much higher resolution than was ...

Ionomycin suppresses cancer cell growth by disrupting mitochondrial transcription

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In this study, we identify a new function for the selective Ca2+ ionophore, ionomycin, as an inhibitor of mitochondrial transcription. Both total and nascent RNA analyses revealed that ionomycin treatment reduces the transcription of mitochondrial genes.

Hepatic rRNA Transcription Regulates High-Fat-Diet-Induced Obesity

Cell Reports, 2014
Ribosome biosynthesis is a major intracellular energy-consuming process. We previously identified a nucleolar factor, nucleomethylin (NML), which regulates intracellular energy consumption by limiting rRNA transcription.

Aerial transport of bacteria by dust plumes in the Eastern Mediterranean revealed by complementary rRNA/rRNA-gene sequencing

Communications Earth & Environment, 2023
High bacterial community abundance and diversity are associated with coarser particulate aerosols and air masses of terrestrial rather than marine origin, according to DNA and RNA analysis of dust aerosols sampled in Rehovot, Israel.

Evaluating the effect of γ‐oryzanol on MASLD pathology using a medaka fish model

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study explores a liver disease called MASLD, which is increasing worldwide and can lead to serious damage. Researchers used medaka fish instead of rodents to test a food compound, γ‐oryzanol. Fish fed this compound had less liver fat and healthier gut bacteria.

Hidden-break diversity in pancrustacean rRNA profiles [PDF]

PeerJ
Background In the 28S rRNA molecule of many invertebrates, a hidden break splits this large subunit into two noncovalently associated fragments (28Sa and 28Sb), masking 28S in electrophoretic profiles and biasing the standard measurements of RNA quality ...
