Transfer RNA and Origins of RNA Interference [PDF]
Almost 30 years ago the first microRNA (miRNA) was detected (Lee et al., 1993), later put in mechanistical context by the discovery of the RNA interference (RNAi) and RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). miRNA is the variable RISC element (guide) that recognizes messenger RNA (mRNA) targets in the RNAi process facilitated by Argonaute (Ago) proteins ...

Transfer RNA and human disease [PDF]
Pathological mutations in tRNA genes and tRNA processing enzymes are numerous and result in very complicated clinical phenotypes. Mitochondrial tRNA (mt-tRNA) genes are hotspots for pathological mutations and over 200 mt-tRNA mutations have been linked ...

Comparative analysis of RNA families reveals distinct repertoires for each domain of life. [PDF]
The RNA world hypothesis, that RNA genomes and catalysts preceded DNA genomes and genetically-encoded protein catalysts, has been central to models for the early evolution of life on Earth.

PltRNAdb: Plant transfer RNA database. [PDF]
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are intermediate-sized non-coding RNAs found in all organisms that help translate messenger RNA into protein. Recently, the number of sequenced plant genomes has increased dramatically.

A novel mistranslating tRNA model in Drosophila melanogaster has diverse, sexually dimorphic effects [PDF]
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) are the adaptor molecules required for reading the genetic code and producing proteins. Transfer RNA variants can lead to genome-wide mistranslation, the misincorporation of amino acids not specified by the standard genetic code ...

Human transfer RNA modopathies: diseases caused by aberrations in transfer RNA modifications. [PDF]
tRNA molecules are post‐transcriptionally modified by tRNA modification enzymes. Although composed of different chemistries, more than 40 types of human tRNA modifications play pivotal roles in protein synthesis by regulating tRNA structure and stability

Transfer RNA-derived small RNAs in the cancer transcriptome [PDF]
The cellular lifetime includes stages such as differentiation, proliferation, division, senescence and apoptosis.These stages are driven by a strictly ordered process of transcription dynamics.

Characterization of Circulating Transfer RNA-Derived RNA Fragments in Cattle
The objective was to characterize naturally occurring circulating transfer RNA-derived RNA Fragments (tRFs) in cattle. Serum from eight clinically normal adult dairy cows was collected, and small non-coding RNAs were extracted immediately after ...

Transfer RNA Comes of Age [PDF]
The year the journal RNA was founded was slated by some in scientific publishing to be the year that one particular type of RNA\u27s run in the spotlight would end.
