Engineering of Glioblastoma‐Derived Biomimetic Vesicles and Their Structural and Molecular Features
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Biomimetic nanosystems and vesicles have arisen as a novel approach to design vesicular transport systems with diverse therapeutic potential. The ‘biomimetic’ strategy involves the integration of cell membrane components into lipid bilayers, conferring them with biological properties originating from the cell of origin. Until now, most studies

SnapShot: Spliceosome Dynamics I
Cell, 2015 Spliceosomes are multi-megadalton RNA-protein molecular machines that carry out pre-mRNA splicing, that is, the removal of non-coding intervening sequences (introns) from eukaryotic pre-mRNAs and the ligation of neighboring coding regions (exons) to produce mature mRNA for protein biosynthesis on the ribosome.

Human spliceosomal snRNA sequence variants generate variant spliceosomes
RNA, 2021 Human pre-mRNA splicing is primarily catalyzed by the major spliceosome, comprising five small nuclear ribonucleoprotein complexes, U1, U2, U4, U5, and U6 snRNPs, each of which contains the corresponding U-rich snRNA. These snRNAs are encoded by large gene families exhibiting significant sequence variation, but it remains unknown if most human snRNA ...

, 2010 Background The U12-type spliceosome is responsible for the removal of a subset of introns from eukaryotic mRNAs. U12-type introns are spliced less efficiently than normal U2-type introns, which suggests a rate-limiting role in gene expression.

Myeloid neoplasms with isolated isochromosome 17q: a yet to be defined entity
Mediterranean Journal of Hematology and Infectious Diseases, 2017 It has been suggested that myeloid neoplasms with isolated isochromosome 17q[MN i(17q)] comprise a distinct entity with poor prognosis. However, literature reports show a considerable clinical and molecular heterogeneity.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by dysregulated T cell responses. RNA helicases, including DExD‐box helicase 21 (DDX21), are pivotal in RNA metabolism, but their role in T cell‐mediated pathology during IBD remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that DDX21 expression in CD4+ T cells correlates with cell cycle and translation ...

Challenging the spliceosome machine [PDF]
Genome Biology, 2006 Abstract Background Using cDNA copies of transcripts and corresponding genomic sequences from the Berkeley Drosophila Genome Project, a set of 24,753 donor and acceptor splice sites were computed with a scanning algorithm that tested for single nucleotide insertion, deletion and substitution ...

G3BP1 Succinylation at K413 is Critical for Cardiac Function by Modulating PI3K‐AKT‐mTOR Signal Axis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Schematic illustrating the impact of G3BP1 succinylation at K413 on cardiac function. In the healthy human heart, G3BP1 succinylation maintains homeostatic mTOR signaling. In patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and heart failure (HF), G3BP1 de‐succinylation induces RagA expression and disrupts the binding of the TSC1/2 complex, leading to the ...

A day in the life of the spliceosome [PDF]
Nature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2014 One of the most amazing findings in molecular biology was the discovery that eukaryotic genes are discontinuous, interrupted by stretches of non-coding sequence. The subsequent realization that the intervening regions are removed from pre-mRNA transcripts via the activity of a common set of small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs), which assemble together with ...
