Propagation of [D1,2]-type spliceosomal twin introns (stwintrons) in Hypoxylaceae and Xylariaceae fungi

Microbiology Spectrum
[D1,2] stwintrons consist of nested U2 introns, where an internal intron splits the 5′-donor of an external intron between its first and second nucleotide.

Characterization of factors involved in the coupling of 3' end processing and splicing and in the 3' end formation of mRNA precursors [PDF]

, 2006
Eukaryotic mRNA precursors are processed at their 5’ and 3’ ends and are spliced prior to their export from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Although all three processing reactions can be studied separately in vitro, they are coupled in vivo.

PANoptosis in the pathogenesis of myelodysplastic syndromes

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
PANoptosis, a combination of three types of programmed cell death, is mediated by a large protein complex called a PANoptosome. In healthy bone marrow hematopoietic cells, PANoptosis is restricted by inhibitory signaling. In MDS, bone marrow cells become sensitive to the PANoptotic stimuli due to the aberrant inactivation of inhibitory signaling or ...

Intrapatient tumour heterogeneity and clonal evolution in an autopsy study of metastatic salivary gland cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Tumour heterogeneity and clonal evolution of metastatic salivary gland cancer were evaluated in two patients with adenoid carcinoma and one patient with myoepithelial carcinoma. Radiology‐guided autopsy enabled multi‐region sampling (total samples n = 149), followed by whole‐genome sequencing and phylogenetic reconstruction (17 tumour samples, 4–7 per ...

Unraveling the epigenetic code in cancer cell–tumor microenvironment crosstalk

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Epigenetic regulation is a key driver of cancer development and progression. Diverse epigenetic alterations in cancer cells and components of the tumor microenvironment (TME) orchestrate their communication through multiple mechanisms. We discuss how the epigenetic code coordinates bidirectional cancer cell–TME crosstalk to promote cancer progression ...

Systematic analysis of nonsense variants uncovers peptide release rate as a novel modifier of nonsense-mediated mRNA decay

Cell Genomics
Summary: The phenotypic impact of nonsense variants is determined by nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD), which degrades transcripts with premature termination codons (PTCs).

Investigation of Experimental Factors That Underlie BRCA1/2 mRNA Isoform Expression Variation: Recommendations for Utilizing Targeted RNA Sequencing to Evaluate Potential Spliceogenic Variants

Frontiers in Oncology, 2018
PCR-based RNA splicing assays are commonly used in diagnostic and research settings to assess the potential effects of variants of uncertain clinical significance in BRCA1 and BRCA2.

Arginine methylation as a regulatory ratchet in cancer: From substrate selection to malignant‐state stabilization

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Arginine methylation can be viewed as a persistence‐prone post‐translational modification regulated by a network of PRMTs. Competitive and compensatory interactions among PRMTs can redistribute methylation across substrate pools shaped by sequence, structural, spatial, and environmental layers, reinforcing RNA‐processing, chromatin, and signaling ...

A comprehensive splicing characterization of COL4A5 mutations and prognostic significance in a single cohort with X-linked alport syndrome

Frontiers in Genetics
IntroductionX-linked Alport syndrome (XLAS), caused by mutations in the COL4A5 gene, is an X-linked hereditary disease typically characterized by renal failure, hearing loss, and ocular abnormalities.

Comparative analysis of piRNA sequences, targets and functions in nematodes

RNA Biology, 2022
Piwi proteins and Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) are best known for their roles in suppressing transposons and promoting fertility. Yet piRNA biogenesis and its mechanisms of action differ widely between distantly related species.
