Characterization of a novel trypanosomatid small nucleolar RNA [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 1998 Trypanosomes possess unique RNA processing mechanisms including trans- splicing of pre-mRNA and RNA editing of mitochondrial transcripts. The previous finding of a trimethylguanosine (TMG) capped U3 homologue in trypanosomes suggests that rRNA processing may be related to the processing in other eukaryotes.

Diverse human extracellular RNAs are widely detected in human plasma
Nature Communications, 2016 Extracellular miRNAs are present in a variety of bodily fluids. Here, Freedman et al. analysed plasma-derived RNA by RNA-seq from 40 people followed by targeted RT-qPCR in an additional 2,763 people, and report over 1,000 extracellular RNAs including ...

Identification of additional regulatory RNPs that impact rRNA and U6 snRNA methylation
Biology Open, 2018 Ribosomes can be heterogeneous, and the major contributor to ribosome heterogeneity is variation in rRNA modification. There are two major types of rRNA modification, pseudouridylation and ribose methylation.

Loss of SNORA73 reprograms cellular metabolism and protects against steatohepatitis
Nature Communications, 2021 Lipid induced stress contributes to metabolic diseases. Here the authors identify small nucleolar RNA 73 (SNORA73) in a screen for genes that protect against lipotoxicity and show that deficiency of SNORA73 reprograms oxidative metabolism and protects ...

Molecular determinants that govern scaRNA processing by Drosha/DGCR8
Biology Open, 2020 The Cajal body (CB) is a subnuclear domain that participates in the biogenesis of many different types of ribonucleoproteins (RNPs), including small nuclear RNPs (snRNPs), small Cajal body-specific RNPs (scaRNPs) and telomerase.

RNA-Seq of the nucleolus reveals abundant SNORD44-derived small RNAs. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Small non-coding RNAs represent RNA species that are not translated to proteins, but which have diverse and broad functional activities in physiological and pathophysiological states. The knowledge of these small RNAs is rapidly expanding in part through

SnoRNA and lncSNHG: Advances of nucleolar small RNA host gene transcripts in anti-tumor immunity
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 The small nucleolar RNA host genes (SNHGs) are a group of genes that can be transcript into long non-coding RNA SNHG (lncSNHG) and further processed into small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs).
