Structural insights into the dynamics and function of the C-terminus of the E. coli RNA chaperone Hfq [PDF]
The hexameric Escherichia coli RNA chaperone Hfq (Hfq(Ec)) is involved in riboregulation of target mRNAs by small trans-encoded RNAs. Hfq proteins of different bacteria comprise an evolutionarily conserved core, whereas the C-terminus is variable in ...

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

In vivo self-assembly of small RNAs in extracellular vesicles: a commentary on a new therapeutic paradigm [PDF]
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) can transport functional RNA, but the clinical development of EV-based RNA therapeutics has been constrained by the technical demands of ex vivo production and cargo loading.

Transfer RNA-derived small RNA: an emerging small non-coding RNA with key roles in cancer
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) promote protein translation by binding to the corresponding amino acids and transporting them to the ribosome, which is essential in protein translation.

Techniques for RNA in vivo imaging in plants [PDF]
Since the discovery of small RNAs and RNA silencing, RNA biology has taken a centre stage in cell and developmental biology. Small RNAs, but also mRNAs and other types of cellular and viral RNAs are processed at specific subcellular localizations.

One Small RNA of Fusarium graminearum Targets and Silences CEBiP Gene in Common Wheat
The pathogenic fungus Fusarium graminearum (F. graminearum), causing Fusarium head blight (FHB) or scab, is one of the most important cereal killers worldwide, exerting great economic and agronomic losses on global grain production.

The RNA phosphatase PIR-1 regulates endogenous small RNA pathways in C. elegans [preprint] [PDF]
Eukaryotic cells regulate 5' triphosphorylated (ppp-) RNAs to promote cellular functions and prevent recognition by antiviral RNA sensors. For example, RNA capping enzymes possess triphosphatase domains that remove the γ phosphates of ppp-RNAs during RNA

The RNA Polymerase II-associated factor 1 complex represses small-RNA-mediated heterochromatin formation and gene silencing [PDF]
RNAi interference (RNAi) is a highly conserved regulatory mechanism employed by almost all Eukaryotes. With RNAi organisms can modulate the expression of endogenous genes and protect the integrity and identity of their genomes.
