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-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.

Nanodelivery of a functional membrane receptor to manipulate cellular phenotype. [PDF]
Modification of membrane receptor makeup is one of the most efficient ways to control input-output signals but is usually achieved by expressing DNA or RNA-encoded proteins or by using other genome-editing methods, which can be technically challenging ...

Biosynthetic pathway of mitochondrial ATPase subunit 9 in Neurospora crassa [PDF]
Subunit 9 of mitochondrial ATPase (Su9) is synthesized in reticulocyte lysates programmed with Neurospora poly A-RNA, and in a Neurospora cell free system as a precursor with a higher apparent molecular weight than the mature protein (Mr 16,400 vs.

Cold Induction of EARLI1, a Putative Arabidopsis Lipid Transfer Protein, Is Light and Calcium Dependent [PDF]
As sessile organisms, plants must adapt to their environment. One approach toward understanding this adaptation is to investigate environmental regulation of gene expression.

ER Membrane Contact Sites: Key Platforms for Biogenesis of RNA-Containing Extracellular Vesicles
The mechanisms by which cytoplasmic cargoes such as RNAs are incorporated into extracellular vesicles (EVs) are poorly understood. In a recent article published in Developmental Cell, we describe a novel function of endoplasmic reticulum membrane contact

Impact of template backbone heterogeneity on RNA polymerase II transcription. [PDF]
Variations in the sugar component (ribose or deoxyribose) and the nature of the phosphodiester linkage (3'-5' or 2'-5' orientation) have been a challenge for genetic information transfer from the very beginning of evolution.

Highly Sensitive Northern Hybridization Using a Rapid Protocol for Downward Alkaline Blotting of RNA
A simple and fast RNA gel blot procedureis described that uses 50 mM NaOH tosimultaneously transfer and fix RNA to apositively charged nylon membrane. TheRNA is transferred in a downward direction,and transfer is routinely completedwithin 2.5 h.
