Function and Therapeutic Implications of tRNA Derived Small RNAs

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
tRNA derived small RNAs are mainly composed of tRNA fragments (tRFs) and tRNA halves (tiRs). Several functions have been attributed to tRFs and tiRs since their initial characterizations, spanning all aspects of regulation of the Central Dogma: from ...

Infection-induced 5'-half molecules of tRNAHisGUG activate Toll-like receptor 7.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2020
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a crucial role in the innate immune response. Although endosomal TLR7 recognizes single-stranded RNAs, their endogenous RNA ligands have not been fully explored.

Expression Profiles of tRNA-Derived Small RNAs and Their Potential Roles in Primary Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
Introduction: tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs), a class of small non-coding RNAs, are divided into two categories: tRNA-related fragments (tRFs) and tRNA halves (tiRNAs).

Genome-Wide Analysis Reveals Origin of Transfer RNA Genes from tRNA Halves [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2013
Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) play an important role linking mitochondrial RNA and amino acids during protein biogenesis. Four types of tRNA genes have been identified in living organisms. However, the evolutionary origin of tRNAs remains largely unknown. In this article, we conduct a deep sequence analysis of diverse genomes that cover all three domains of ...

Transfer RNA halves are found as nicked tRNAs in cells: evidence that nicked tRNAs regulate expression of an RNA repair operon

open access: yesRNA, 2023
Transfer RNA fragments are proposed to regulate numerous processes in eukaryotes, including translation inhibition, epigenetic inheritance, and cancer. In the bacteriumSalmonella entericaserovar Typhimurium, 5′ tRNA halves ending in 2′,3′ cyclic phosphate are proposed to bind the RtcR transcriptional activator, resulting in transcription of an RNA ...

Plant Small RNA World Growing Bigger: tRNA-Derived Fragments, Longstanding Players in Regulatory Processes

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
In the past 2 decades, the discovery of a new class of small RNAs, known as tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs), shed light on a new layer of regulation implicated in many biological processes.

The Small RNA Component of Arabidopsis thaliana Phloem Sap and Its Response to Iron Deficiency

open access: yesPlants, 2023
In order to discover sRNA that might function during iron deficiency stress, RNA was prepared from phloem exudates of Arabidopsis thaliana, and used for RNA-seq. Bioanalyzer results indicate that abundant RNA from phloem is small in size—less than 200 nt.
