The Insertion Domain of Mti2 Facilitates the Association of Mitochondrial Initiation Factors with Mitoribosomes in Schizosaccharomyces pombe

open access: yesBiomolecules
Translation initiation in mitochondria involves unique mechanisms distinct from those in the cytosol or in bacteria. The Schizosaccharomyces pombe mitochondrial translation initiation factor 2 (Mti2) is the ortholog of human MTIF2, which plays a vital ...

Targeted inhibition of mRNA translation initiation factors as a novel therapeutic strategy for mature B-cell neoplasms

open access: yesExploration of Targeted Anti-tumor Therapy, 2020
Cancer development is frequently associated with dysregulation of mRNA translation to enhance both increased global protein synthesis and translation of specific mRNAs encoding oncoproteins.

Synonymous codon usage regulates translation initiation

open access: yesCell Reports, 2023
Summary: Nonoptimal synonymous codons repress gene expression, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. We and others have previously shown that nonoptimal codons slow translation elongation speeds and thereby trigger messenger RNA (mRNA ...

Effectiveness of a Novel Low‐Density Lipoprotein Apheresis Device Rheocarna in Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis With Chronic Limb‐Threatening Ischemia: A Single‐Center Retrospective Study

open access: yesTherapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic limb‐threatening ischemia (CLTI) is a severe form of lower‐extremity artery disease characterized by distal lesions and microcirculatory impairment, limiting revascularization efficacy. Rheocarna is a direct hemoperfusion low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) adsorption device with potential rheological and anti‐inflammatory ...

Specialized Yeast Ribosomes: A Customized Tool for Selective mRNA Translation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Evidence is now accumulating that sub-populations of ribosomes - so-called specialized ribosomes - can favour the translation of subsets of mRNAs. Here we use a large collection of diploid yeast strains, each deficient in one or other copy of the set of ...

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Experimental characterization of Cis-acting elements important for translation and transcription in Halophilic Archaea

open access: yes, 2007
Summary The basal transcription apparatus of archaea is well characterized. However, much less is known about the mechanisms of transcription termination and translation initation.

A Deeper Look into Translation Initiation [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2014
Eukaryotic translation initiation requires coordinated assembly of a remarkable array of initiation factors onto the small ribosomal subunit to select an appropriate mRNA start codon. Studies from Erzberger et al. and Hussain et al. bring new insights into this mechanism by looking at early and late initiation intermediates.

The Role of Cytoplasmic mRNA Cap-Binding Protein Complexes in Trypanosoma brucei and Other Trypanosomatids

open access: yesPathogens, 2017
Trypanosomatid protozoa are unusual eukaryotes that are well known for having unusual ways of controlling their gene expression. The lack of a refined mode of transcriptional control in these organisms is compensated by several post-transcriptional ...

Organ‐specific redox imbalances in spinal muscular atrophy mice are partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotides

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We identified a systemic, progressive loss of protein S‐glutathionylation—detected by nonreducing western blotting—alongside dysregulation of glutathione‐cycle enzymes in both neuronal and peripheral tissues of Taiwanese SMA mice. These alterations were partially rescued by SMN antisense oligonucleotide therapy, revealing persistent redox imbalance as ...
